I had a similar one to this, I was setting up a NVR on Ubuntu server. I would put a jump drive in the server and boot off of it, all of the ethernet ports were visible, But the server install would not see them. I started looking to see what was missing ended up going into /etc/netplan/yadayada.yaml whatever name it gives your .yaml file) and found it was empty I ended up adding all of the needed bits and pieces and viola! there was working ethernet ports (I only needed 2 of the 4 on the server box) after I got the correct drivers in there I still had to add the port stanzas to the .yaml file.
