I am glad if you can point out anything to improve regarding the steps. I am not an expert in Linux/KVM/Networking, so my implementation might not be the best. Active direct attach cables aren't supported.As I have struggled through setting up (and succeed, yay!) SR-IOV with an Intel NIC, I decide to do a little write up for myself and as a sharing. SupplierĨ2598-based adapters support all passive direct attach cables that comply with SFF-8431 v4.1 and SFF-8472 v10.4 specifications. Not all modules are applicable to all devices. The following is a list of SFP+ modules that have received some testing. See your system documentation for details. LAN on Motherboard (LOMs) may support DA, SR, or LR modules. Only single speed, 10 gigabit modules are supported. Hot Swapping/hot plugging optical modules isn't supported.

If you plug in a different type of module, the driver won't load. Intel® Network Adapters that support removable optical modules only support their original module type (for example, the Intel® 10 Gigabit SR Dual Port Express Module only supports SR optical modules). ifconfig down turns off the laser for 82599-based SFP+ fiber adapters.Laser turns off for SFP+ when ifconfig down SupplierĨ2599-based adapters support all passive and active limiting direct attach cables that comply with SFF-8431 v4.1 and SFF-8472 v10.4 specifications. The following is a list of 3rd party SFP+ modules that have received some testing. Results may vary if you mix speed settings. When 82599-based SFP+ devices are connected back to back, they should be set to the same Speed setting via ethtool.
If your 82599-based Intel® Network Adapter came with Intel® optics or is an Intel® Ethernet Server Adapter X520-2, it only supports Intel optics and/or the direct attach cables listed below. The driver in this release is compatible with 82598- and 82599-based Intel Network Connections. Alternatively, you can use ethtool (version 1.6 or later), lspci, and ifconfig to obtain the same information. The driver information previously displayed in the /proc file system isn't supported in this release. You can find Channel Bonding documentation in the Linux kernel source /Documentation/networking/bonding.txt. The following features are now available in supported kernels:
All hardware requirements listed apply to use with Linux. For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the documentation supplied with your adapter. A version of the driver may already be included by your distribution and/or the kernel. Intel isn't supplying patches against the kernel source to allow for static linking of the driver.
Ixgbe.conf modprobe debian buster drivers#
These drivers are only supported as a loadable module at this time. The Linux* base driver supports the 2.6.x kernel, and includes support for any Linux-supported system, including Intel® Itanium® Processors: 2, x86_64, i686, and PPC. The ixgbe driver supports 82598- and 82599-based PCI Express* 10 Gigabit Network Connections.įor information concerning driver configuration details, refer to the README file in the ixgbe driver download.
