Example:
Latest quad-port PCIe Copper Gigabit NIC for select HP ProLiant Gen8 and
Gen9 rack servers, based on Broadcom 5719 chip in a Flexible LOM form factor
It may be branded HP, but it's a Broadcom nic.
Ensure you have the latest drivers whatever the network cards are.

I haven't met an HP server that doesn't natively ship with Broadcom
nics even though they are called HP network cards.
You sure those suckers aren't evil Broadcoms?

Virtual or real metal?
Both. 2 virtual, 4 physical. :-) The "main" DNS server, the ones
almost all the servers point at (and therefore should be registering
with), is virtual. The physicals are 2 Dell and 2 HP boxes.
Nics are Intel or Evil Broadcoms (TM)?
The virtuals are all vmxnet3, the Dell physicals have teamed Broadcom
NICs and the HP has their NIC teamed.
(if virtual and if Evil Broadcoms (TM) ensure you have disabled
rss/toe and
VMQ on the parent)
The parent. You mean on the vmhost? Ours is VMware 5.5 U2, running on
HP hardware, so they aren't using Broadcom NICs..
