Hi Intel comunity,
We have serious problem with intel cards (X710 and XL170).
The linux server (Dell Power Edge 630) don’t see them completely under RedHat 7.2. I dont see the interfaces under linux ifconfig -a.
I have installed the last drivers (ixgbe-5.1.3 and i40e-2.0.26) but didnt succedded to update the firmware (if it is the problem).
Here below the output of my server:
- From "modinfo" I get the following output:
