OEM card and now you wish to (manually) update the firmware on your adapter card(s), you need to
perform the steps below. The following steps are also appropriate in case you wish to burn newer
firmware that you have downloaded from Mellanox Technologies’ Web site (http://www.mellanox.com >

Or, update the firmware to the latest version available on Mellanox Technologies’ Web
site as described in Updating Adapter Firmware.
