A compute node currently operating within a given computing environment and currently enabled to support at least a first communication protocol obtains one or more instructions for enabling the compute node to support a second communication protocol. In response to the one or more instructions, one or more configuration parameters associated with the compute node are automatically reconfigured to support the second communication protocol. An automatic determination is made, in the given computing environment within which the compute node currently operates, whether or not to certify the compute node for the second communication protocol.
