-   Octeontx SDK includes kernel image which provides Octeontx ZIP PF
+   OCTEON TX SDK includes kernel image which provides OCTEON TX ZIP PF
    driver to manage configuration of ZIPVF device
    Required version of SDK is "OCTEONTX-SDK-6.2.0-build35" or above.
 
    SDK can be install by using below command.
-   #rpm -ivh CTEONTX-SDK-6.2.0-build35.x86_64.rpm --force --nodeps
+   #rpm -ivh OCTEONTX-SDK-6.2.0-build35.x86_64.rpm --force --nodeps
