Should work since the differences are mainly the interfaces. Two versions are available: * 82599EB - PCI Express* (PCIe*) 2.0, dual port 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller for XAUI, KX, KX4, BX, BX4 and CX4 interfaces. * 82599ES - Serial 10 GbE backplane interface for blade implementations (includes the 82599EB SKU functionality plus KR and SFI interfaces). >From the data sheet
1.2 Product Overview The 82599 is a derivative of previous generations of Intel 1 GbE and 10 GbE Network Interface Card (NIC) designs. Many features of its predecessors remain intact; however, some have been removed or modified as well as new features introduced. Note: This device is available in dual port and single port variants. The single port device is limited to port 0 and to the SFI interface. If you are using the single port device, information in this document pertaining to port 1 and other interfaces does not apply. Note: For addition information, see the introductory material in the Intel(r) 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Specification Update. -----Original Message----- From: dev [mailto:dev-boun...@dpdk.org] On Behalf Of Prashant Upadhyaya Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2013 3:10 AM To: dev at dpdk.org Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] regarding this NIC Intel(r) 10GbE network controller 82599ES From: Prashant Upadhyaya Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2013 4:38 PM To: dev at dpdk.org Subject: regarding this NIC Hi, Could somebody advise if this NIC would work with DPDK.
