Sorry about that. I still have problems with getting the Intel X4DACBL3 QSFP to 4x SFP breakout cable working with the i40e. I have also upgraded the NVM, but it did not help. Below is the modprobe output.

Might the 3rd party DAC cable confuse the driver? I need to travel to get physical access to the server, so I cannot easily pull the cable. PPS I understand: - 3rd party optics are not supported - max of 4 mac addresses, so 4x10 is OK, 4x10 + 1x40 is not OK Is this correct? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
