GUID(s) Optional, for InfiniBand adapters and 4th generation (Group I) switches. One

or four GUIDs.

If 4 GUIDS are provided (-guids flag), they will be assigned as node,

Port 1, Port 2 and sys- tem image GUIDs, respectively.

If only one GUID is provided (-guid flag), it will be assigned as node

GUID. Its values +1, +2 and +3 will be assigned as Port 1, Port 2 and

system image GUID, respectively.

If no -guid/-guids flag is provided, the current GUIDs will be preserved

on the device.

NOTE:For 4th generation (Group I), four GUIDs must be specified but Ports 1

and 2 GUIDs are ignored and should be set to 0.

NOTE:A GUID is a 16-digit hexadecimal number. If less than 16 digits are

provided, leading zeros will be inserted.

MAC(s)  Optional, for Ethernet and VPI adapters and switches.

If 2 MACs are provided (-macs flag), they will be assigned to Port 1

and Port 2, respectively.

If only one MAC is provided (-mac flag), it will be assigned to Port 1;

MAC+1 will be assigned to Port 2.

If no -mac/-macs flag is provided, the current LIDs will be preserved

on the device.

NOTE:A MAC is a 12-digit hexadecimal number. If less than 12 digits are

provided, leading zeros will be inserted.

To burn a firmware image:

Update the firmware on the device, keeping the current GUIDs and VSD. (Note: This is the

common way to use the tool.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin burn

Update the firmware on the device, specifying the GUIDs to burn.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin -guid 1234567deadbeef burn

Update the firmware on the device, specifying the MACs to burn.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin -mac 1234567deadbeef burn

Burn the image on a blank Flash device. This means that no GUIDs are currently burnt on the

device, therefore they must be supplied (with -guid/-guids) by the burning command.

Moreover, the burn process cannot be failsafe when burning a blank Flash, therefore the -nofs

flag must be specified.

burn# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin -nofs -guid 12345678 burn

Read FW from the device and save it as an image file.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 ri Flash_Image_Copy.bin

MT58100 SwitchX switch:

Burn the image on a blank Flash device. Meaning, no GUIDs/MACs are currently burnt on

thedevice, therefore they must be supplied (with -guid/-guids and -mac/-macs) by the
