I have a Mellanox MCX456A-ECAT ConnectX-4.
Motherboard is SuperMicro SYS-5018D-FN4T.
What do I need to get this NIC to show up as an interface?
TIA

You have to load mlnx5 driver. Just search for Connect x3 and replace with 5

Is this still valid for mlnx5?

Do I still need cli or can I use the GUI (System Tunables) to add
mlx5en_load=“YES“

You can try via GUI but I think it has to be loader.conf.local (which always stays untouched)
