3. Software/Driver Installation
There are two main methods to install the Chelsio Unified Wire package: from source and RPM.
If you decide to use source, you can install the package using CLI or GUI mode.
If you decide to use RPM, you can install the package using Menu or CLI mode.
Irrespective of the method chosen for installation, the machine needs to be rebooted for
changes to take effect.
The following table describes the various configuration tuning options available during
installation and drivers/software installed with each option by default:
