E810 - Certain port breakout options not available

[NablaSquaredG]

Hi,

I have an Intel E810-CQDA2 on a Supermicro X10SDV-7TP4F board.

However, the only available options are

The 2x25+2x10-2x10 + 1x10+1x25+1x10+1x25-2x10 options mentioned in the EPCT readme (https://downloadmirror.intel.com/812390/epct_1.40.5.5.txt) are missing. Why is that?

Hi NablaSquaredG,

Thank you for posting in Intel Ethernet Communities.

Regarding the issue reported, Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter E810-CQDA2 is it embedded in Supermicro X10SDV-7TP4F board? And also, would like to check if you bought it together from Supermicro?

Regards,

Hi Sazirah,

The card is NOT embedded in the X10SDV-7TP4F board. It is a standalone, genuine E810-CQDA2 PCIe card that was not bought from Supermicro. Date of Manufacture 10/2022, verified on VerifyIntel.bradyid.com

Hi NablaSquaredG,

Thank you for the information. Please give me some time to check from my end regarding this.
