List of Supported Network Interface Cards

At least one network interface card (NIC) present on the system must be supported by the FreeSBC. You can use this command on a linux server to find the list of Ethernet adapters available:

 lspci | grep Ethernet

Tested interfaces from Intel in TelcoBridges labs:

• I210, 1 Gbps (E1000 drivers)

• I211, 1 Gbps (E1000 drivers)

• I350, 1 Gbps (E1000 drivers)

• X540, 10 Gbps (ixgbe drivers)

• X710, 10 Gbps (i40e drivers)

Example of unsupported interfaces:

• Broadcom Limited NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet

Note: 2021.08 We found issues with the following network interface:

• BCM57412 NetXtreme-E 10Gb

It is using bnxt drivers. It may also affect other devices using this driver. We recommend not using this until we identify what is the issue. (ref trk#24995)
