XXV710-AM2 Configuration related

[lixinn]

Hello,
Our company is using a 700 series Ethernet adapter XXV710-AM2, and we are using it for the first time. Our usage scenario is that ARM's PCIE X8 outputs 2X10GE through XXV710. I would like to know:
1. In this compressed package "700Series_NVMUpdatePackage_v8_30_Linux" which .bin file we want to burn into the flash.
2. The flash capacity we use is winbond's W25Q80BV, I see the manual requires 64Mb, is our winbond w25q128bv okay? Are there any necessary requirements for flash capacity?
3. I want to know, Tool and method for burning xxv710-am2 firmware with processor lx2160a and arm64 architecture

Hello, Carlos：

                         1. The .bin file you provided is burned in flash W25Q64JVSSIQ,（ 564666-710-series-dev-starter-svk-6p80\NVM\XXV710_MCP_6p80_BACKPLANE_NCSI_CFGID12p0_8000408D），but the ARM side recognizes 25GbE, and I need XXV710-AM2 to generate 10GbE*2 application mode. Whether there are corresponding documents available. Thank you！

、

2. In the current 25GbE configuration mode, the kernel5.4 kernel insmod i40e.ko can see two network ports, as shown in the figure, the configuration IP does not communicate with the external 25GE port. What is the reason? Do you need additional configuration?
