Driver Support
For Windows, the Ethernet controller is supported by a driver provided by Intel. A copy of this driver is provided on the companion CD that is
shipped with the board and may also be downloaded from the RTD web site (
). It is
recommended that you frequently check the RTD web site for updated documentation and drivers.
Under Linux, the Ethernet controller is supported via the
ixgbe
kernel module that is included from Linux kernel 2.6.18 up through 5.8. Both 32-
bit and 64-bit versions of Linux are supported. Most modern desktop Linux distributions will automatically detect the Ethernet controller and
load the necessary drivers. Contact the vendor of your Linux distribution for more information.
For other operating systems, the Ethernet controller may be natively supported via built-in drivers. Your operating system vendor should be
able to provide the necessary information.
