Hi there,
we are experiencing problems with the X710 series R630 Intel NIC built-in within our Dell server (running ESXi version 6.5.0 / build number 7388607).
As for the i40en driver version:
Driver Info:
Bus Info: 0000:01:00:0
Driver: i40en
Firmware Version: 6.00 0x800034ef 18.3.6
Version: 1.4.3
Just yesterday we had another outage with a lot of upset customer calls, so this issue is rather urgent. I have seen the blog entry for a i40en driver update for 6.7 installations, but that doesn't help our specific case.
Can you at least give us an ETA for the driver update for 6.5 installations? As mentioned above, it's pretty urgent as we can not have any more outages like yesterday. Please advise.
Thank you in advance!
Best
Tommy
