network card x710-at2 tool to manage the setting

[hpzech]

Hallo

Ich search a tool that manage the intel x710-At2 card on Ubuntu 21. I tried to use ethtool but I don't get access to change the setting also when I work with sudo rights. I download the nvmupdate tools, but I have no access to change any setting as "autoneg off" for example.

the card is installed in a RS7000 A-E11 and I see the following message in the syslog.
[10.172528] kernel: i40e 0000: 41: 00.0: The driver for the device detected a newer version of the NVM image v1.12 than expected v1.9. Please install the most recent version of the network driver.
Do you have a tip how I can configure the card? Thanks
