Intel Converged X540-T2 - Not working Proxmox - Debian

[crazyhorse1]

Hi I have this card PCI-E Intel 540-AT2 adapter in a supermicro sys-4028.

The card is recognized by the bios but no lights in proxmox. It's not the cable or the switch (c3850) as I have tested with other cables and other switches.

I have also updated the driver with the one provided by Intel (https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/58954/intel-ethernet-converged-network-adapter-x540-t2.html) ... no results unfortunately:

enp129s0f0 and enp129s0f1 are working in a bond with the ethernet card provided natively with the server. Bond seems to be slower 10G instead of 20G but working.

enp10s0f0 and enp10s0f1 do not work and it says NO-CARRIER
