Compatibility Notes

In addition, note the following limitations for Intel Ethernet devices and connections.

Intel Ethernet 800 Series:

  • Devices based on the Intel Ethernet Controller E810-C have an expected total throughput for the entire device of 100Gbps in each direction if one 100G cable is connected or if two 100G cables are connected.

  • Devices based on the Intel Ethernet 800 Series do not support RDMA when operating in multiport mode with more than 4 ports.

Intel Ethernet 700 Series:

  • Devices based on the Intel Ethernet Controller XL710 (4x10Gbps, 1x40Gbps, and 2x40Gbps) have an expected total throughput for the entire device of 40Gbps in each direction.

  • The first port of Intel Ethernet 700 Series adapters will display the correct branding string. All other ports on the same device will display a generic branding string.

  • For an Intel Ethernet 700 Series adapter to reach its full potential, you must install it in a PCIe Gen3 x8 slot. Installing it in a shorter slot, or a Gen2 or Gen1 slot, will limit the throughput of the adapter.

  • Devices based on the Intel Ethernet Controller X722 do not support the following features:

Intel Ethernet 500 Series:

  • Devices based on the Intel Ethernet Connection X552 and Intel Ethernet Connection X553 do not support the following features:

    • Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)

    • Intel PROSet for Windows Device Manager

    • Intel ANS teams or VLANs (LBFO is supported)

    • Data Center Bridging (DCB)

    • IPSec Offloading

    • MACSec Offloading

  • In addition, SFP+ devices based on the Intel Ethernet Connection X552 and Intel Ethernet Connection X553 do not support the following features:

    • Speed and duplex auto-negotiation

    • Wake on LAN

    • 1000BASE-T SFP Modules
