A first IP address is set to the host, and a second IP address is set to the storage card. A storage card includes a storage device and a processor for executing firmware. The host converts a first Ethernet packet including an ISP-related request and destined for the second IP address into an NVMe request according to an NVMe protocol, and transfers the NVMe request to the storage card. The firmware parses the NVMe request to perform the ISP-related request.
