I bought some Intel gigabit ET dual port server adapters and found that some of these adapters are shown as "Intel gigabit ET dual port server adapter" in the Windows Device Manager but the others are shown as "Intel 82576 gigabit dual port network connection".

I'd like to known what is the difference with them. Thank you!

I have a Dell Optiplex 9020 with an Intel i7-4790 processor and 32GB RAM. It is set up with dual-boot Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise and Ubuntu 16.04 Linux.

If I start from power-down and boot into Linux, the I217-LM Ethernet chip works fine. Same if I boot Windows. But if I have booted into Windows and then reboot into Linux without powering-down, the Ethernet does not work. Linux is never able to connect to the network and get an IP address by using DHCP. In the upper-right corner of the screen there is an icon which spins around, showing that it is trying to connect. If I give the command "sudo dhclient -v eno1", I get this output:

Listening on LPF/eno1/98:90:96:db:2b:49

Sending on   LPF/eno1/98:90:96:db:2b:49

Sending on   Socket/fallback

DHCPDISCOVER on eno1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3 (xid=0xaeaac17)

DHCPDISCOVER on eno1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4 (xid=0xaeaac17)

This repeats until I type ctrl-C to kill the program.

If I reboot into Windows, the Ethernet works again. So it appears to me that at boot the Linux driver is not properly resetting the chip if it has already been used, but powering down does reset it. And, the Windows driver seems to set the chip correctly.

This problem occurred with the version 3.3.2 e1000e driver which came with Ubuntu. I downloaded and installed 3.3.4 from the Intel Web site, and it has the same problem. I did some Googling and it appears that others have seen this behavior for a while, but I don't know if it has ever been reported to Intel.

Thanks for looking into this.

i don´t find them, can you help me? thanks

ISP has IPV6 enabled and I noticed my desktop PC stopped getting Windows updates.

After much digging and test, I found out that my NIC was dropping TCP packet on the receive from Windows Update. After disabling all Offloading options and enabling options one by one, I was able to narrow it down to TCP RX was the culprit.

Windows 10 1607 x64

Intel I217-V 12.15.23.1 (5/10/2016)

Not sure if anyone else has seen this issue? Windows Update log showed it never received a HTTP response back from Microsoft.

Hi,

I found a problem that when adding vlans to a XL710 port only 255 vlans can be configured.

Further configuration will return with error message as "ixl0: aq_add_macvlan err -53, aq_error 16"

-53 means admin queue error and 16 should be no space available or alloc fail.

This is found on FreeBSD OS and with driver 1.4.8 and latest NVM on chip.

Could you please help confirm what issue it is?

Thanks very much.

Hello,

I am trying to image a latitude e5570 with a i219-lm network adapter. The pxe boot fails because the driver i injected into the wim file doesn't correspond. I've tried the manufactor driver and the driver from intel but without result

These are the drivers i tried without succes

i'm using system center version 1602 and where using the x86 boot image.

Does anyone know which driver i should use?

Hello,

But when I try to assign the virtual function(PCI dev assign) to my virtual machine, the virt-manager gives me following error:

So anybody know what is the problem? BTW, I can use PCI passthrough perfectly to my virtual machine, but for SR-IOV mode, it just does not work.

And also, in SR-IOV is the module vfio, vfio_pci, vfio_iommu_type1 and vfio_virqfd still needed?

Thank you!

то имеем:

Два Сервера fujitsu, конфигурация серверов абсолютно одинаковая, на обоих установлено по две сетевые карты:

Помогает только ребут сервера.

Вопрос: Что делать? Куда двигаться дальше?

My distributor listed this 10Gb NIC as PC compatible. Windows 10 does not even acknowledge the card.

Some of my servers become unresponsive during traffic spikes (e.g. small DoS/DDoS attacks, which do not max out our connection.)

The servers become unresponsive because of high CPU usage, after running some tests I saw that only one core is being utilized for 100% during a <200Mbps packet flood. The server stopped replying to ICMP echo/ping.

I think the pictures explain them self.

On this machine we use VMQ, there are 7 Vport available. But according to the Intel driver only two are actually in use.
How can we allow VMQ/network stack on the host OS to use more than 1 core?

We've seen similar issues with servers with RSS load balancing, although the load balancing works better there. (spreads over multiple cores.)
Are there any tips to improve RSS load balancing during traffic spikes? We use Intel Xeon E3 systems with 4 cores + Hyper Threading and one Intel Xeon E5 system with 6 cores and Hyper Threading.

We want to keep the server working during traffic spikes and all round keep our latency to the minimum.

Hello,

after the update to Windows 10 (x64, Build 10240) the creation of a teaming group (static or IEEE802.3ad) with a I211+I217-V NIC fails.

Drivers have been upgraded to the latest version available and multiple reinstallations with reboots din't help either. Whenever the group creation wizzard is used and a groupname (several tried), the adapters and LACP have been selected, a Windows pop-up appears to tell me group creation has failed.

However the Windows Device Manager shows a newly created "Intel Advanced Network Services Virtual Adapter", so some kind of configuration seems to get done.

Using Windows 7 SP1 x64 the exact same setup worked flawlessly for months, so Win10/the driver are the likely culprit.

Is anyone experiencing similar problems and/or is this a known bug? Feedback on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Famaku

Hi,

The sed pattern to determine the kernel version is broken. It will end up stripping too much off.

for example /lib/modules/2.6.32-504.16.2.el6.x86_64 will get stripped back to 2.6.32

This is not the intent of the sed pattern and causes install problems as /lib/modules/2.6.32 doesn't exist

Hi all. Few days ago I bought the motherboard MSI Night Elf (network adapter Intel I219-V).

I Have a problem with gigabit internet. It doesn't work. In properients i see 1 GBPS, but on speedtest.net i see only 100 mpbs.

It's not a problem with cable or router, because in the past i had not problem with it (before that i have a motherboard ASUS P5Q3 and saw real speed 800 mbps).

I hope to solve this problem and hope for your help.

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

recently I am having problems with WiFi connection in Windows 10 , do not connect and events shows me error 5060, this does not happen with Windows 8 , both teams are under in same domain , the same policies, same make and model , which could be happening?

Hi,

I recently bought an i350 ethernet controller. I would like to enable the "critical manageability session" of the card, but I can't find any documentation that explains how to do that. The only document related to my question is https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/guides/maintaining-the-ethernet-link-to-the-BMC.pdf#pag…  which says to refer to the i350 documentation. I did... but I was not able to find any concrete information in it. Any hint?

Thanks!

Hi,i have the following issue. i am using a workstation equipped with Intel X550-T2 card and connected both 10Gbase-T ports with a cat7 cable to switch-port 27/28. switch-port 27/28 are also 10Gbase-T capable.

only one port on the intel card will connect at full speed (10Gbps). the second port will run with 1Gbps. I tried these things:

- build up a lan-team on workstation-side in windows server 2012

- forced card- and switch-ports to 10Gbase

- build a aggregation with both switch-ports

nothing really helped. is there a compatibility problem between card and switch ?

i tried also to active and deactivate stp. i dont understand why only one port run with full speed.

i got a supermicro-mainboard based server in my office as well, two intel x550 onboard ports and the same problem occur. one port is at full speed the second port is at 100Mbps.

in a possible future project I have to programm an application to send data via NC-SI on a Intel i210. To prepare I am looking for information on how to program software to communicate via Sideband Interface. Is there a library and possibly code examples to help with this?
