The snapshots in the following sections are for illustration purposes only. The installation interface
may slightly vary, depending on the used operating system.
This section provides instructions for two types of installation procedures, and both require
administrator privileges:
• Attended Installation
An installation procedure that requires frequent user intervention.
• Unattended Installation
An automated installation procedure that requires no user intervention.
Attended Installation
The following is an example of an installation session.
1. Double click the .exe and follow the GUI instructions to install MLNX_WinOF2.
2. [Optional] Manually configure your setup to contain the logs option (replace "LogFile" with
the relevant directory).

default value is False).
MLNX_WinOF2_<revision_version>_All_Arch.exe
