Emulex NC553i 10Gb NIC support

lucien · Dec 27, 2012

Hello,

I meet issues by installing FreeBSD 9 on a HP Blade BL460c G7. I suspect that the network interface: Emulex NC553i is not supported. I didn't found the driver to use. Do you have some experience with this server or this NIC?

Thank you in advance.

The oce(4) driver may work but it looks like you'll need at least 9.1-RELEASE:

Edit: The manual page says "FreeBSD 8.3" so it might be supported on 8.3 as well.
