Intel X552 ixgbe driver

[lnt10]

We are currently using Intel X552 Ethernet Adapter as below and are switching to new kernel 6.6.21 . Have downloaded the latest ixgbe driver 5.19.6 but in the release note it says this driver only support up to kernel version 6.4 . Is there a version of ixgbe driver that supports kernel 6.6.21 ? If not, when will it be available ?

Thank You.
