Quick Tip - Updating Intel ixgben driver enables Multi-gigabit (2.5gbE / 5GbE) selection in ESXi

intel 82599 10 Gigabit Dual Port Network Connection在esxi8.0不是自带驱动,找了大半个互联网,又再次找到这个吊毛的博客,人家有权限下(里面虽然都是干货,VM的高级工程师还是架构师) 但他妈的普通用户没权限下载,这个吊毛broadcom,迟早打得一手稀巴烂牌。

真是骂娘到它奶奶家了。


找了HP官网

https://support.hpe.com/connect/s/softwaredetails?language=en_US&softwareId=MTX_867cba3345cb4894b1e55aa46b&tab=releaseNotes

Supported Devices and Features:

These drivers support the following network adapters:

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 560SFP+ Adapter

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 560FLR-SFP+ Adapter

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 561T Adapter

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 561FLR-T Adapter

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 562T Adapter

  • HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 562FLR-T Adapter

看起来有些像,但是安装后没效果

找到hp vib 的最新下载地址

https://vibsdepot.hpe.com/hpe/nov2024/esxi-800-devicedrivers/  


[root@localhost:/tmp]  esxcli software vib install -v /tmp/INT_bootbank_ixgben_1.15.1.0-1OEM.800.1.0.20613240.vib

Installation Result

   Message: Host is not changed.

   Reboot Required: false

   VIBs Installed:

   VIBs Removed:

   VIBs Skipped: INT_bootbank_ixgben_1.15.1.0-1OEM.800.1.0.20613240

提示已经已经安装跳过再次安装了。


附上联想服务器的OEM镜像下载,理论上提取对应的 Intel-ixgben_1.15.1.0-1OEM.800.1.0.20613240_21375148.zip 就好了?

https://vmware.lenovo.com/

这个没测试,理论应该也是无法识别,因为我安装的就是联想的定制的8.0镜像


找了这个,这大神有账号

结果也是问题依旧。

Quick Tip - Updating Intel ixgben driver enables Multi-gigabit (2.5gbE / 5GbE) selection in ESXi

Here is a nice protip from one of my readers, Peter, who recently came across an issue with an Intel x550 network adaptor and ESXi not listing any of the Multi-gigabit (2.5GbE or 5GbE) options even though his underlying physical network was setup as 2.5GbE, only 100MBps, 1GbE and 10GbE was available.

After a bit of trial/error, he discovered the solution was to update the inbox version of the Intel ixgben driver (1.7.1.44-1vmw.803.0.0.24022510) to the latest supported version for ESXi 8.x and he immediately saw the additional Multi-gigabit speeds as shown in his screenshot below:

Peter thought this might be worth sharing as others have also ran into this problem when using an Intel-based Network controller (82599, x520, x540, x550, x552 & x553) with Multi-gigabit physical networking.

To download the latest Intel ixgben (1.15), you will need Broadcom Support Portal (BSP) account that has an entitlement to a vSphere SKU (e.g. vSphere Enterprise Plus) and you can find the driver by navigating to MyDownloads->vSphere->(Select your SKU)->Drivers & Tools and then filter by ixgben and look for 1.15 as shown in the screenshot below:

After downloading the driver, you will need to unzip to access the ESXi Component (zip), which you can either install using vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM) or directly on an ESXi host by uploading it to host and then running the following ESXCLI command:

esxcli software component apply -d /Intel-ixgben_1.15.1.0-1OEM.800.1.0.20613240_21375148.zip

Once the updated driver has been installed, reboot and you should now be able to select additional Multi-gigabit speeds!
