Changes:

- General: The link might go down when Intel device drivers load using auto-speed (default) with nonspecification compliant modules. Manually setting the speed might recover the link.
- General: Applications using the Intel Ethernet Controller E810 in a backplane configuration with no WoL, and no management during power-up might experience no link, which is fixed by any form of reset.
- Firmware: The device firmware might enter recovery mode during stress testing of PCIe in-band resets where many resets are done back-to-back. This is not observed in normal operation but can be seen by running the PCI-SIG configuration verification test under stress.
- Firmware: RDMA MPI stress might crash with eight or more systems in cluster use.
- Linux Driver: DPDK sample applications specify a packet size of 1518 bytes. At present the PF driver does not take into account the extra 4 bytes needed if a port VLAN is configured. In this situation (when a port VLAN is configured) full sized packets of 1500 do not reach the DPDK application. In order for this to work properly, initialize the max packet length within the DPDK application to account for the possible port VLAN (specify 1522 bytes).
- Linux Driver: When in an 8x10 configuration and using firmware LLDP, the 8TC to 4TC mapping in CEE mode does not work.
- Linux Driver: Operating system traffic is not passed when using a VLAN over bridge topology. To workaround this issue, set the rx_vlan_filter to off and traffic will resume as expected.
- Linux Driver: IEEE1588/PTP 1PPS does not work on Intel E810 series adapters.
- Linux Driver: The dmesg log might show ICE_ERR_AQ_TIMEOUT errors due to know issues with the driver. The feature might not work as expected when using Release 25.2 driver which has now been fixed.
- Linux RDMA Driver: When using RoCEv2 on newer kernels, some iSER operations might experience errors related to iSER's handling of work requests. To work around this issue, set the ice fragment_count_limit devlink parameter to 13. Refer to the Devlink Configuration section of the irdma driver README for details on setting the devlink parameter.
- NVM Update Tool: Intel recommends not enabling non-default modes (delayed reboot and selective preservation) with this release. Generally when using these features, errors might be reported; however, after a reboot the update should have completed successfully.
- FreeBSD Driver: When using the FreeBSD ice driver and the enable/disable LLDP agent status sysctl, enable/disable on one port might enable/disable on other ports.
- Manageability: When using PLDM Type 2 monitoring and control messages to read thermal sensor information the following can be observed: Inserting modules post boot will not be detected; When sending an Enable Channel NC-SI command when the device is in low power with link off, the link is not turned on; Module temperature value is incorrect.
- Manageability: When sending Enable Channel NC-SI command when the device is in low power with link off, the link is not turned on.

About Ethernet Drivers:

Windows platforms generally apply a generic driver that allows motherboards to recognize the Ethernet component.

However, in order to make use of all network card (adapter) features, you must install a proper LAN driver that enables the hardware. This task enables systems to connect to a network, as well as collect all component characteristics such as manufacturer and chipset.

If you intend to update the driver version, know that this process can add support for new OSes, fix different compatibility problems, resolve related errors encountered during the product's lifetime, as well as include various other changes.

When it comes to the actual installation procedure, we should note that most producers try to make it as easy as possible, so following the steps should be a breeze: just get the downloadable package, run the setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.

There is a chance that other OSes could also be suitable, but it is not advisable that you install this release on platforms other than the specified ones. Remember to perform a system reboot once done, to allow all changes to take effect properly.

Therefore, if you wish to apply this version, click on the download button and enable your network card. To stay up to speed with the latest updates, check back with our website as often as possible.
