Hey William,

A quick why to get the device ID would be to:

First get the PCIe bus address from "ethtool -I <port>"

[root@...workstation src]# ethtool -i p258p1
driver: ixgbe
version: 3.11.33-k
firmware-version: 0x18eb0001
bus-info: 0000:05:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: no

Then use that address to find the device ID:

[root@...workstation src]# lspci -ns 0000:05:00.0
05:00.0 0200: 8086:10fb (rev 01)


As for the FW version I'm concerned that yours might not be correct from the output you sent me earlier.

> firmware-version: 0x00000000

This doesn't look correct to me I will poke our FW folks to verify.  It may be worthwhile to dump the FW and send it to me (i.e. ethtool -eeprom-dump).

Thanks,
-Don

p.s. I'm about to be out of the office until Tuesday of next week and am not sure I'll be able to get to my email so I might be slow in a reply.  :(
