I am planning on getting a Asrock Rack E3C236D2I server motherboard, and the two on-board gigabit NIC's it has are the Intel i210 and the intel i219.
Just want to check both the i210 and the i219 both support VLAN tagging. Planning on using Windows Server 2016 essentials.
Also what is the difference between the i210 and the i219 Chipsets?
Regards: Elliott.
Dear Team,
I have query on intel network product that do we have 25G NIC - fiber card ? if not what is the alternate model in intel?.

I have a performance dilemma with the Windows 10 software/driver for an onboard I210 series LAN chipset. I have two ASUS motherboards, Rampage IV – 82579V and P10S WS – I210, connected to a network. The P10S WS is the server and the other is used as desktop. With just these two components connected, I get about 85-90MB/s performance from a normal boot. But, if I go into the P10S WS and change anything in the advanced configuration of the adapter, which makes the adapter restart, then my performance is 111-113MB/s (which is really good). After booting the P10S WS, I have to change something (i.e. speed from Auto to 1GB full duplex, even though it is running 1GB anyway) to get it to restart and run full speed. Any help would be appreciated. Running Intel latest drivers.
I was installing the latest drivers for my motherboard, I211 + I219-V on a fresh W10 x64, the 21.1 package.
I219-V work fine
But the new Drivers for I211 (at least, maybe others too) inside ProSet 21.1 are signed ¿Wrong? by INTELNPG1, and Windows refuse them with the classical Error 52.
ProSet 21.0, in other hands, work fine, the sign are correct. issued not by INTELNPG1, but Intel(R) Intel Network Drivers.
Not a drama, but it would be nice to install a properly signed driver to use it.
More strange, Drivers for I219-V are signed by INTELNPG1 too, and work fine (same cert)
Hi,
I have a Linux station with an Intel i354 ethernet controller. I'm trying to use LLDP for discovery between these stations, but it does not seem to work. If I use other interfaces, with different NICs, the LLDP utilities work ok. Could someone give me some hints on what might be wrong?
Hello,
I would like to use the i210-AT as part of a 1000BASE-T backplane design. I have a plug-able network switch with on-board magnetics and would like to interface to an i210-AT without adding an additional transformer.
I came across a thread that discussed this application and included the name of an application note, but i have been unable to actually find the app note or any official documentation.

Hi,
My internet keeps dropping every 10 minutes or so, it's a new computer with an ASRock B250M Pro4 motherboard, and a wired ethernet connection. My phone does not have any problems with the same router, neither did my previous computer.
I've read a bunch of solutions around the web, the main one is to go to Device Manager -> the network adapter -> Properties -> Power Management, and then turn off the "Allow the computer to save power" option.
This option wasn't there, and my settings looked something like this http://i.imgur.com/PBgPCSs.png which I assume is because the driver is newer than when that solution was proposed. I turned all the options in this dialog off, and it made no difference. I
I then installed several different versions of the drivers on the intel site, some with the "save power" option, and none of them stopped the issue from occurring.
What are my next steps?
Hi,
For a study, I would like to know the differences between two Intel Network driver versions (example: delta changes/fixes/improvements from v18.6 and v21.1)
In the Intel websites, I don't get this information. can you please update from where can I get these information?
Appreciate your help!
Hi,
I am trying to run a VM that wont have an ip address but instead will work in transparent mode (like a cable). I have a PF that has 7 VFs on it and some of these VFs are part of VLAN x and some VLAN y. Here are my issues:
1. I see that the bcast traffic is sent to all VFs regardless, can I change it so that only bcast for the related VLAN arrives on th VF?
2. As the traffic that I generate has a different dest IP/MAC than my transparent VM, the VF should be in promiscuous mode. Is it enough to set "trust on" with ip link?
What I am trying to do is, to pass the traffic from VM1 to VM2 over the transparent VM.
VM1 -- TransparentVM -- VM2

Hi,
We are using Intel's Atom processor with Springville I210 controller as Ethernet PHY.
The PCIe port of Atom processor is connected to Springville to convert PCIe into MDI signals which are then connected to an Ethernet PHY switch.
We are using this link at a speed of 100Mbps.
Concern here is that, the voltage levels of MDI signals which are coming out from Springville is around 5V pk-pk. This is not as per the standard specs of MDI signals.
Can any one please suggest if any settings has to made to correct this,

Greetings,
I'm following the directions from document 513655. Running EEUPDATE shows my two i210 controllers (one working, and one blank). Using both EEUPDATE & LANConf to attempt to program the blank flash results in a timeout error that occurs after 5+ minutes of the tool claiming that it is writing to flash.
LANCOnf gives the following: c86a0004 - "Timeout Error" when programming i210 blank flash
I'm using the following versions on an Intel Atom E3815 processor on Ubuntu 16.04.2

Hi All,
I was trying to test 100base T in Mdix mode,however Lanconf doesn't support MDI-x directly,looks like phy register has to be modified in order to get signal in mdix mode.
Does anybody know how to make these changes.?

Hello,
I am trying to use the x710 MAC/VLAN filtering option to steer packets to receive queues based on strict MAC address match.
I need to filter and steer around 100 MAC addresses to 8 receive queues. Because of the development environment constraints I cannot use
SRIOV, IOV, VEB or flex partitioning.
My configuration is as follows:
Default simple switch configuration
One PF and one VSI with 8 queues
RSS, Ether type and Flow director filters are disabled and MAC/VLAN filter is enabled.
I am setting toQueue flag to steer packets to the appropriate queue.
However I don't see packets getting steered to the desired queue. Packet steering is not happening and packets always land on the same queue.
Do I need to configure the switch with "Set Switch" command to get filtering work as described above?
How do I initialize the VSI to support the above flow.
Are there any other other configuration settings that need to be done to get the packets steered as described above?
Thanks,
Sony
I am designing a system that will use the x550. I want to have the future possibility of IEEE 1588 precision time protocol. The SDP (software defined pins) of the x550 will be connected to an FPGA for this purpose. Is it important to have an ultra accurate clock source on the x550 for 1588? Or does the FPGA require this clock source?
I have trouble updating firmware for X710DA4 card.
This card drops connection at random with Linux 4.9.9 driver.

When I install the driver ver 21.1 Download Intel® Network Adapter Driver for Windows® 10 I get a message
"Important Note: Creating Intel® ANS teams and VLANs on Microsoft Windows® 10 is currently not supported. As a result, when created, teams and VLANs do not pass traffic. We expect that ANS will be supported on Microsoft Windows 10 client in a future release"
I dont need teaming etc...but once the driver is installed, I dont see WOL in the ADVANCED option ???
Where is the WOL feature???
Thanks,

Following all the events at I211/I217-V Windows 10 LACP teaming fails and networking - USB to Ethernet adapter supporting multiple virtual LANs - Hardware Recommendations Stack Exchange, we now have an Ethernet driver that should properly support the Intel Advanced Networking Suite (iANS) under Windows 10.
Using Windows 10.0.14393 with all updates installed, with an I217-LM adapter and the 22.0.1 driver installed. Things seem to be very flaky. My focus here is primarily on being able to work with multiple VLANs, with no trunking at present.
First - when creating new VLANs, ensure that the "Network Connections" window or any similar windows other than the "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection * Properties" dialog are closed. Not doing so will frequently result in the operation hanging indefinitely. (I remember the same from when we had the working drivers here in Windows 7 and Windows 8 days.) Even with the other windows closed, sometimes it is taking almost 5 minutes to create a new VLAN - but it takes even longer to do so with the "Network Connections" window open (if it completes at all).
With this out of the way: Add a new VLAN10. Only once one VLAN is created can we then create the "Untagged VLAN" (ID 0). Reboot. Everything still works and comes back up as expected.
Add a 2nd tagged VLAN, say VLAN11. Reboot. The "Untagged VLAN" fails to pull a DHCP lease. The virtual adapter shows packets being sent and received. I ran Wireshark on the Untagged VLAN adapter, saw DHCPDISCOVER packets go out, and other unrelated broadcasts and packets coming back - but no DHCPOFFERs returned. I.E., it seems to be missing traffic in that state. Disable the Untagged VLAN adapter, re-enable, and it instantly comes back with a valid lease. This is constantly repeatable. Nothing is even connected to the other side of these VLANs yet (the connected switchport isn't even trunked). Remove the 2nd tagged VLAN leaving only one tagged VLAN and the untagged, and things work much better - but this kind of defeats the purpose.
Here's my ugly hack of a work-around for now: Add a Windows Scheduled Task to run at System Startup, and to run with highest privileges. Use a PowerShell similar to the following as the action:
$( Get-Date Write-Host "Starting..." ipconfig.exe /all Write-Host "Restarting..." Restart-NetAdapter -Name "Ethernet - Untagged" -Confirm:$false ipconfig.exe /all Get-Date Write-Host "Done." ) *>&1 > C:\FixIntelNetwork.log
I was worried about timing, and could add a 30 second delay or such in the startup trigger. However, the ipconfig outputs show that this wasn't necessary. In the first ipconfig output, the adapter was present and already had an auto-configured 169.254.x.y IP address. In the second ipconfig output, a proper DHCP lease was shown.
As I don't have anything on the other VLANs to test with yet, I still need to determine - but may have to reset the other VLAN interfaces at startup as well.
Hi all,
Same problem here.
One tagged VLAN (6) and untagged VLAN. After every reboot the untagged VLAN doesn't work until I disable and re-enable the Untagged VLAN virtual adapter. The VLAN6 doesn't present this problem and can ping other hosts in the same VLAN.
NIC is connected to a Cisco switch with the following config:
nwcore2#sh run | s 2/0/39
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/39
description AURELIO (0B39D)
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,6
switchport mode trunk
spanning-tree portfast trunk
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
Let me know if you need any information to try to detect the issue. As ziesemer I have no dump as the system doesn't crash.
Best regards
Aurelio Llorente
