Firmware upgrade for Cisco branded Intel X710-DA4 adapter

$

Hi all,

 

I am trying to make out Cisco branded Intel X710-DA4 quad port 10GBASE SFP+ network adapter to support 1G SFP modules. According to Intel documentation it should by supported starting with 6.01 NVM. The adapter currently has 5.05. I have compiled and installed the newest Intel Linux driver 2.4.10 and I have tried to use nvmupdate64e to upgrade NVM from 5.05 to 6.01. But it fails:

Intel(R) Ethernet NVM Update Tool

NVMUpdate version 1.30.22.3

Copyright (C) 2013 - 2017 Intel Corporation.

...

02) Cisco(R) Ethernet Converged NIC X710-DA4  5.05  1572 00:094 Update not available

Tool execution completed with the following status: Device not found

Press any key to exit.

The problem seems to be a Cisco specific NVM version not mentioned in nvmupdate.cfg.

 

ethtool -i output is:

driver: i40e

version: 2.4.10

firmware-version: 5.05 0x80002b50 0.385.8

expansion-rom-version:

bus-info: 0000:5e:00.0

supports-statistics: yes

supports-test: yes

supports-eeprom-access: yes

supports-register-dump: yes

supports-priv-flags: yes

 

Is it possible to use one of the NVM image files included with Intel's nmvupdate with this card or not? I have also checked Cisco's firmware files, but their newest version is the one we currently have in the card (and which does not support 1G SFPs, only 10G and special 10G/1G dual speed ones).

X710 i40en 8-port total Limit

We have a Dell EMC R740xd-12 with 6 X710da2 cards (12 ports) and it appears with the i40en (i40e) driver that there is an 8 port limit on ESXi. Is there any way to work around this?  Is this limitation exist in the Windows (Hyper-V) driver as well?

 

Just bought an Intel PRO/1000. Problem installing drivers.

The 4 ports show up in Device Manager, but when I go to install the latest drivers (PROWinx64 it says "Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) Adapters are present in this computer." How can I install the latest drivers? The current drivers are from Microsoft from 4/5/2016 ver 12.15.22.6.

 

Thanks for any help.

Where is the NVM firmware updater for X722 on ESXi 6.5U2 ?

$

Hi,

 

I recently installed the latest build of ESXi 6.5 update 2 and am having issues with it.

I found that VMware still ships the old driver 1.3.1 so I installed the 1.5.8.

However this driver requires the NVM firmware to be 3.28 or 3.51 (default installed is 3.25).

Everything is crystal clear for the X710 but I cannot find the NVM updater for the X722 to install 3.28 or 3.51.

 

Thanks

i40e x710 4x10G card not working anymore with DAC

$
0
0

Using an updated driver, I cannot seem to get my interfaces up. Looks like the driver is not allowing the NIC to work due to the SFP+ module type, which worked previously on my Debian Stretch host. Clearly the NIC is detecting and reading the DAC, but I don't understand why it is not working. This is a 40G-breakout cable with 40-to-4x10G SFP+ DAC (TwinAx). I have tried adding the following to work around it, but it still does not work:

 

root@lab4:~# cat /etc/modprobe.d/i40e.conf

options i40e allow_unsupported_sfp=1

 

This was also discussed here, but there was no followup:

Hi,

 

I have installed an Intel X550-T2 card into a newly built esxi 6.5u2 server with the latest drivers, the host can detect the hardware but it doesn't show up in the vmware console. All the hardware is listed on the compatibility list, what could be the problem?

Intel 10-Gigabit X540-AT2 (rev 01) Bandwidth Not as spec

$

Hello Intel,

 

We have purchased 3pcs of Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller 10-Gigabit X540-AT2 (rev 01).

We have connected this to our HP Desktops in the PCI Express slot(PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor PCI Express x16 Controller (rev 06)).

 

Now when we run iperf tool to measure the bandwidth we found that when dual port are used to tx/rx we see total bandwidth as 1st port @~4Gbits/sec and 2nd port @~5Gbits/sec total for 2 ports(port1 + port2) @~9Gbits/sec

When we use only 1 port we see 9Gbps bandwidth.

But as the product spec details from the link (Intel® Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X540-T2 Product Specifications ) as per port 10Gbps.

 

Please help us to reach the bandwidth as mentioned in the product spec. Means are we doing something wrong or any configuration in the driver that we need do.

 

Attachments shows how we are connected and tests performed with the results.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello.

I am using 710 card in Fedora 28 with kernel 4.17.2. The card is configured to bond eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3 together as active/backup for historical reasons.

Here is my configuration:

[root@none device]# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/device

0x1589

[root@none device]# ethtool -i eth0

driver: i40e

version: 2.3.2-k

firmware-version: 6.01 0x80003485 1.1747.0

[root@none device]# uname -r

4.17.2-200.1.rnof28_300.x86_64

 

Every 51 minutes I am getting link down message:

Aug 13 11:15:26 localhost kernel: i40e 0000:3b:00.0 eth0: NIC Link is Down

Aug 13 11:15:27 localhost kernel: bond0: link status down for active interface eth0, disabling it in 500 ms

Aug 13 11:15:27 localhost kernel: bond0: link status definitely down for interface eth0, disabling it

Aug 13 11:15:27 localhost kernel: bond0: making interface eth1 the new active one

 

180 secs later link comes back:

Aug 13 11:18:31 localhost kernel: i40e 0000:3b:00.0 eth0: NIC Link is Up, 10 Gbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: None

Aug 13 11:18:31 localhost kernel: bond0: link status up for interface eth0, enabling it in 3000 ms

Aug 13 11:18:34 localhost kernel: bond0: link status definitely up for interface eth0, 10000 Mbps full duplex

Aug 13 11:18:34 localhost kernel: bond0: making interface eth0 the new active one

 

Does anybody have any idea of what is going wrong here?

Thanks,

Windows 10 ALB Inactive Issue

Hello, I successfully created a team with an Intel l219-V and an Realtek card, both cards are wired to an internet router/access point.

But my issue is that one of my cards always stays as inactive, I think I'm missing something?

 

What I'm trying to achieve is to fully utilize my 2Gpbs download speed. Sadly I'm locked to an Echolife HG8045j GPON that provides only 1Gbps ports.

 


I219V High Propagation Delay

$

Hi,


I have an Intel NUC7i3BNH with the I219V ethernet controller which is 802.1AS compliant according to its datasheet.

 

I am trying to use it with ptp4l and a gPTP profile but I get really high propagation delays in the range of 7μs  when connected directly to an I210 device or Extreme x440-48t switch. This is very high for hardware timestamping. For reference, the I210 has a propagation delay of around 20ns when connected to the switch or another I210. The gPTP profile needs a propagation delay below 800ns to be considered AS capable.

I tried updating the e1000e drivers to version 3.4.1.1-NAPI but results were the same.

I am using Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS and 4.13.0-45-generic kernel.

 

Why is the propagation delay so high and what can I do to fix it? Is the I219V actually 802.1AS compliant?

 

Thanx,

Andre.

 

VLAN Issues Windows 10

Hello,

 

I'm having some issues using VLANs on a new system. (See system Specs at Bottom)

Last coupe of days I have tried to update the drivers to make VLANs work on my laptop.

 

First driver I tried to install went well. I could see The VLAN tab when configuring my network connection.
However when I tried to add a VLAN the laptop gave me a BSOD with BAD_POOL_CALLER as error message.

 

I tried to reinstall a couple of times, rebooted a few times and it alway repaired itself to the previous Driver installed.
Driver used: Download Intel® Network Adapter Driver for Windows® 10

 

After some searching on the web I found that  alot of people had an issue like this. There was a problem with the ProSet option during the driver installation and one post suggested another driver provided by Intel that would fix the issue crashing.

Using this driver solved the BSOD issue, but whenever I make a VLAN, it deactivates itself. activating it doesn't work, it just stays deactivated.
Driver used: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25016/Intel-Network-Adapter-Driver-for-Windows-10?product=...

 

After some searching on the web I found this article from 2016 saying that VLAN or teaming or not supported by windows 10 with the ProSet driver.

Because it was an old article I searched for a more  recent one and found this.

So I tried to install every driver beginning from the newest one and ending on 22.3 as the article says following:

Every driver has these same issues.

Driver page: Download Intel® Network Adapter Driver for Windows® 10

 

Anyone here who had/has similar issues?

Are there any known solutions for these issues?

 

Best regards,

VLANs disabled in Windows 10 Build 17133.1 Version 1803

This issue was covered here but was NOT resolved and mark answered by accident.

VLANs disabled in Windows 10 Build 17133.1 Version 1803

 

My steps were as follows

  1. Ran fine with Windows 10 Ver. 1709 for months using multiple tagged VLANs and one untagged VLAN on Intel NUC NUC6i7KYK (aka Skull Canyon) and Intel i219-LM NIC.
  2. Clean installed Windows 10 Build 17133.1 Version 1803 with latest Drivers from Intel.
  3. Recreated all my tagged VLANs only to find they were all DISABLED.
  4. Permanently removed Intel NIC 23.1 driver and installed previous Intel NIC 22.9 driver with no luck still.
  5. Clean installed Windows 10 Ver. 1709 with Intel NIC 23.1 driver.
  6. Recreated all my tagged VLANs and BAM they all worked like normal.

 

In conclusion, the latest Intel NIC driver 23.1 seems fine but there is something wrong with Windows 10 Build 17133.1 Version 1803 Springs Creators Update, aka Redstone 4.
