Just installed on a Lanner NCA-1510:

For some reason the SFP interfaces aren't being detected. Is there something special I need to do to enable? The other 4 onboard NIC's are detected fine. I'm guessing I need to load a driver for the SFP's? I've tried adding if_igb_load="YES" to the tunables.

Forgive me for a noob question, making the move over from pfsense. Pfsesne detected the interfaces by default.

Output from pciconf -lv shows the devices:

none10@pci0:3:0:0:      class=0x020000 card=0x0000ffff chip=0x15368086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = 'I210 Gigabit Fiber Network Connection'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

And my 4 onboard NIC's:

Hi guys,
I have the same with Dell server and Broadcom Adv. Dual 10Gb Ethernet network card that uses sfp. I do not see it with ifconfig or when trying to assign interfaces. Can someone please help here?

I'm trying to understand the problem wondering which SFP module was inserted? The post doesn't say.


Cheers,
Franco
