After MLNX_OFED is installed on the Arm cores, use the mlx5_core driver to use the two Ethernet ports on the BlueField Controller Card. If
the Ethernet ports on the BlueField Controller Card are connected to the network, there is no need to bridge the host via RShim net to
access the network.
To install the kernel modules, please follow the instruction in
