Identifying the Card in Your System

On Linux
Get the device location on the PCI bus by running lspci and locating lines with the string "Mellanox Technologies":
ConnectX-6 Card Configuration
Single-port Socket Direct Card (2x
PCIe x16)
Dual-port Socket Direct Card (2x PCIe
x16)
Single-port PCIe x8/x16 Card
lspci Command Output Example
[root@mftqa-009 ~]# lspci |grep mellanox -i
a3:00.0 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908 Family [ConnectX-6]
e3:00.0 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908 Family [ConnectX-6]
[root@mftqa-009 ~]# lspci |grep mellanox -i
05:00.0 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908A0 Family [ConnectX-6]
05:00.1 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908A0 Family [ConnectX-6]
82:00.0 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908A0 Family [ConnectX-6]
82:00.1 Infiniband controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28908A0 Family [ConnectX-6]
In the output example above, the first
two rows indicate that one card is installed in a PCI  slot  with  PCI  Bus  address  05  (hexadecimal),  PCI  Device  number  00  and  PCI  Function 
number 0 and 1. The other card is installed in a PCI slot with PCI Bus address 82 (hexa-decimal), PCI Device number 00 and PCI Function number 0 a
nd 1. 
Since the two PCIe cards are installed in two PCIe slots, each card
gets a unique PCI Bus  and Device number. Each of the PCIe x16 busses sees two network ports; in effect, the two
physical ports of the ConnectX-6 Socket Direct adapter are viewed as four net devices by the system.
