Get started

You are welcome to play, test, and develop on the lugano-1 .. lugano-4 servers. Once your account is added you can connect like this:

ssh [email protected]

and check the PCI devices and their addresses with `lspci§.

Certain cards (82599 and ConnectX-4) are cabled to themselves. That is, dual-port cards have their ports connected to each other. Certain other cards (X710/XL710) are currently not cabled. If you have special cabling needs then please open an issue on the snabblab-nixos.

Thanks
