How could I read eeprom info of optical cables connected Intel E810-C NIC from Ubuntu Linux server?

[peter_arrcus]

Hi

I am trying to read all cable MSA eeprom info via E810-C using i2c tools or ethtool but seems not working properly. 

Is there a way to read it via E810? If so, could you please share steps? Thanks.

Regards,

Peter

Hi Zigfreid,

Thanks for the updating. Since we used Linux Kernel OS and have to try ethtool as a primary option, could you please share more detailed steps how to read and modify EEPROM of cables via Intel NIC connection? Thanks.
