“Guide to Myrinet-2000 Switches and Switch Networks,” available at
http://www.myri.com/myrinet/m3switch/guide/index.html).
Please follow the instructions in the “Guide to Myrinet-2000 Switches and Switch
Networks” when connecting/disconnecting cables to/from cards and switches.
Step 4: Power on the host and check that the card is detected by the host

Depending upon the operating system running on the host, this detection mechanism
varies.
