I226-IT latest Linux Driver & TSN enable

[bsp_user]

Hi,

We have a custom carrier board hosting a tiger lake CPU and I226-IT NIC.

We use Ubuntu 22.04 and need to demonstrate TSN capabilities.

We searched at the official product page

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/210591/-intel-ethernet-controller-i226it/specifications.html

but didn't find any TSN enable instructions in Linux Ubuntu.

1. Where to get the latest Linux driver for enabling the TSN capabilities? 

2. Are there any additional operations required to enable the TSN capabilities? (Firmware update/tools install/etc)

3. We didn't find all the supported TSN capabilities and protocols for this NIC except for PTP. Where can we find the full list?

Thanks

Hello bsp_user,

Thank you for your confirmation. This would be because you do not have a premier access to Intel's Resource and Documentation Center (RDC). Intel RDC has two types of documents, one which is available to public and only a standard account is required to have to view/download it. Other one is Intel Confidential Document, not available to public directly and requires a premier account.

This document requires a privileged access. Please refer to below article which guides how to create RDC account - both standard and premier one. You will need the premier one-

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000058073/programs/resource-and-documentation-center.html

This will guide you step by step with illustrated images of the set up/sign up process.
