I am currently working on SN1022 and I have programmed the board successfully. What is the next step? How do I connect my smart NIC to the host and the ethernet and send the data for the simple wire plugin that is provided and also for some other plugins that I can generate?

Hello @prateek-0328 ,

Same as other Alveo cards, you can install onic driver.

The only difference is that on U45N/SN1022, there is a AXI4-stream switch inside of box @250MHz. Please check https://github.com/Xilinx/open-nic-shell/blob/main/README.md. Especially, "MAC <-> QDMA subsystem 0 (On U45N, it is connected to host CPU) Select QDMA subsystem 0"

Hope it helps.
