Sandbox 9 consists of 8 servers, each with the following specifications:
* Server model: Dell R740XD
* CPU: 2x Intel Xeon Gold 6126
* Memory: 192GB
* Disk: 256gb ssd
* Network: 2x 25gbe mellanox connect-x4 lx
* Network: 2x 100gbe mellanox connect-x5 lx (pending, shares 1x pcie3.0x16 slot)
* Network: 1x 10gbe (pending)
* Accelerator1: Nvidia V100 16gb
* Accelerator2: Xilinx Alveo U200 FPGA (2x 100gbe ethernet onboard)

They are connected to two switches:

* Dell Z9100

* Edge Core Wedge100BF-32x
  * Ports: 32x 100g ports, each can break out to 2x 50, 2x 40, 4x 25, or 4x 10g ports.
  * OS: Azure SONIC operating system, or !OpenNetworkLinux
  * Management: In band, out of band, or via onboard BMC.

===== Procedures (Wedge) =====
Manual install of new switch os:
Currently this must be done by a user with admin access. A service will be provided to automate this operation.

1. download image and change symlink on repo1 at path {{{/tftpboot/os/switch/100bf-32x/current-os}}}
1. Connect to BMC, and run ONIE following steps at https://github.com/opencomputeproject/OpenNetworkLinux/blob/master/docs/GettingStartedWedge.md
1. For SONIC, follow https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/wiki/Quick-Start
1. Set up mapping of serial lanes to ports
