10GigEthr-03 (iocxgbe) B.11.31.1403 Ethernet Driver Release Notes HP-UX 11i v3
The 10GigEthr-03 (iocxgbe) requires the latest firmware for supported devices. For more
information, see the latest HP-UX Ethernet Card Support Matrix at:
http://www.hp.com/go/10-gigabit-ethernet-docs
IMPORTANT: Link problems might be seen with the following iocxgbe adapters:
• NC553i Integrated (LOM) FlexFabric adapter
• NC552m (product number: 610609–B21)
• NC553m (product number: 613431–B21)
The problem is caused by a defect in the firmware. Update your firmware to 4.2.401.2212.
NOTE: NC552m is only supported on HP Integrity servers with the adapter firmware version
indicated in the HP-UX Ethernet Card Support Matrix. If you purchase an NC552m as a standalone
product, it might ship with a lower or higher adapter firmware version preinstalled. Before booting
HP-UX, you must install the indicated firmware version.
Firmware requirements for the newly-supported OL* feature are listed in “New features introduced
