Using mstconfig
Example:
# mstconfig -d 41:00.0
Device 1:
----------
Device type: ConnectX-3
PCI Device: 41:00.0
Configurations: Next Boot
SRIOV_EN True(1)
NUM_OF_VFS 16
WOL_MAGIC_EN_P1 False(0)
WOL_MAGIC_EN_P2 False(0)
In order to set VPI parameters through mstconfig, use the following command line:
# mstconfig -d <device> set [LINK_TYPE_P1=<link_type>] [LINK_TYPE_P2=<link_type>]
Example: Configuring both ports as InfiniBand:
# mstconfig 41:00.0 set LINK_TYPE_P1=1 LINK_TYPE_P2=1
Device #1:
----------
Device type: ConnectX3Pro
PCI device: 41:00.0
Configurations: Next Boot New
LINK_TYPE_P1 ETH(2) IB(1)
LINK_TYPE_P2 ETH(2) IB(1)

In order to set SR-IOV parameters through mstconfig, use the following command line:
# mstconfig -d <device> set [SRIOV_EN=<0|1>] [NUM_OF_VFS=<NUM>]
Example: Turning on SR-IOV and enabling 8 Virtual Functions per Physical Function:
# mstconfig -d 41:00.0 set SRIOV_EN=1 NUM_OF_VFS=8
Device #1:
----------
Device type: ConnectX4
PCI device: 41:00.0
Configurations: Next Boot New
SRIOV_EN 0 1
NUM_OF_VFS 0 8

-I- Please reboot machine to load new configurations.
For a full description of the preboot configurable parameters refer to Supported Configurations and their Parameters under "Preboot Settings".
Example: Enable boot option ROM on port 1, set boot retries to 3 and set the boot protocol to PXE.
# mstconfig -d 41:00.0 set BOOT_OPTION_ROM_EN_P1=1 BOOT_RETRY_CNT_P1=3 LEGACY_BOOT_PROTOCOL_P1=1
Device #1:
----------
Device type: ConnectX3Pro
PCI device: 41:00.0
Configurations: Next Boot New
BOOT_OPTION_ROM_EN_P1 False(0) True(1)
BOOT_RETRY_CNT_P1 0 3

mstconfig allows applying raw configuration file for a pre-set configuration. Raw configuration files are intended for advanced users. This document does not cover the generation of such files.
Set the raw configuration file:
# mstconfig -f ./tlv_file.conf -d 41:00.0 set_raw
