Hi all,
We got a bunch of X710 NIC and cant use them with our custom app.
As the topic says, rte_eth_dev_count returns 0. And after a quick
investigation with testpmd, we saw that i40e_aq_get_phy_capabilities
returns 'I40E_ERR_UNKNOWN_PHY'.
With I40E always make sure and update firmware as first step.
Last I checked, some Intel NIC's do not support 3rd party SFP modules.
Hi Stephen,
We try to update the firmware, and get some errors:
Num Description Ver. DevId S:B Status

But BTW, it seems that we have the last one already flashed (5.05).
And about the used SFP, we do not use third party but the official
Intel FTLX1471D3BCV-IT.
Any other idea? :/
BR,
