Is igb1 dead?

Hi. Just bought cheap Supermicro X11SSM-F, but no matter how I try I cannot make active link to igb1. igb0 working fine.

Cables is 100% fine. Other side port is 100% fine (Other FreeBSD - switch). No LEDs blinking, but if i select "blink led for identification" in BIOS, it blinks.
Thank you for any advice.

The identity LED is software controlled.

If the interface doesn't give you an "active" status and the link LED doesn't light up too then we can safely assume the port is broken.
 
SS 5018A-FTN4 igb1 works with 12v1:
Code: 
# uname -a
FreeBSD crc41 12.1-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p5 GENERIC  amd64

# ifconfig
igb0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
   ...
    media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)

They (Supermicro boards) work pretty fine. Do you want to try upgrade the BMC and BioS firmware on it? You can get a legal and valid license key generator online if you don't want to buy one.

I've already update BIOS to the most recent one. Verified all jumper settings, checked whole BIOS configuration options, and even disassemble server and visually inspect RJ-45 connector for physical damage. Nothing. I see second NIC in bios, and FreeBSD sees it, but no link detected. I've tried different patch cords, and even try to bend connector in slot in case of bad connectivity, but this gives nothing. One more step to do will be physically check signals in slot lines, but this is slightly over my skills and equipment :) Thank you very much for help.
