Hello Intel community. I need help for Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I217-V wich isn't working suddenly after a Windows update on end december (don't remember the date). After that I was looking for solutions like uptading my bios, LAN, switching to windows 7 (I'm back to Win10) and other sh*t... nothing works. So I want to share a screenshot of the problem here. And a last thing, I tried the intel driver uptade utility and it found that my chipest needs update from 10.0.14393.594 to 10.1.1.14. So I did it but after the reboot I opened the utility again and it says the same thing  that it needs an update from 10.0.14393.594 to 10.1.1.14.

 

Thanks for any info, any solution. And sorry if there are some mistakes I have a low level of english

  • We have been using the X710 and designers have been investing time in this card and driver
  • If we wanted to look at the XL710 would it be transparent,  same driver and all?  or not?

I have problems with 82579LM and 82579V Gigabit Network Adapters and can't connect in Windows 10

Hi,

 

I started my Windows 10 PC and got a blue screen message:

 

IQRL not less or equal ... Windows will fix this and restart.

 

After that I can no longer connect to the internet.

I get a "Windows couldn't automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adapter."

... message.

 

I have searched high and low in forums and tried all sort of things, but no result.

 

ipconfig gives a black screen. It doesn't connect.

 

I do not see a "Network Reset option in Windows 10, so there seems to be something wrong there as well.

 

I had a 82579LM which was working, but I thought I try an update. Now I have both, an 82579LM (older) and an 82579V (newer) network adapter on my computer.

 

I can't seem to uninstall them, they just keep coming back.

 

The 82579LM is now greyed out and right click says "error getting adapter info"

I can't reinstall the 82579LM because it says there already is a newer driver and I need to unintall that first.

 

When I uninstall the 82579V driver and do a restart, it is back. I can't get rid of it.


Do the two driver interfere with each other?

How do I reset this?

 

I have many other things listed, but I don't have a clue what they are?

 

Any help? Desperate!

Hello,

 

Is it possible to have multiple VLAN ID in Intel I210 network card on Windows Server 2016 ?

I installed the Intel drivers but apparently you can only define one VLAN ID?

X710 MAC Filtering

February 14, 2017, 9:45 am

Hi,

 

I have a system with an Intel X710 (supermicro onboard card).

 

There is a somewhat unusual configuration on this system, but this does work everywhere else I've seen (including other intel cards on other systems):

 

I have an interface, with two vlans, eg:

eth0.10

eth0.11

 

If I configure eth0.10 with a specific mac address, it appears that something happens in the driver/hardware level that prevents the network card from receiving (tcpdump does not see them) packets with that source mac address, even when they are coming in vlan11

 

Running the latest driver (not the OS-included one): 1.6.42

OS is Ubuntu Linux, 14.04.5 with 4.4 kernel    

 

 

Any idea how to disable this behavior?

 

Thanks,

-Adam

DPDK i40e : how to control packet spacing

February 16, 2017, 6:25 am

Hello,

 

I am trying to control precisely packet spacing on an Intel X710 NIC using DPDK i40e poll mode driver. To do so i just try the naive way : the software loop asks for a packet burst of 1 packet every 10us (i'm working around 1 Gbps with packets of size 1400). But what i'm seeing on the other side is bursts of around 10 packets (precisely around 9 packets spaced by ~2us, then 1 spaced by ~100us).

I have also tried to push more packets each time, using 5 packets bursts and spacing calls by 50us, but the result seems to be the same.

I know that controlling packet gap in software can be tricky, but i was wondering if anyone had some ideas on how to improve the behaviour (i could be very happy with bursts of 3-4 packets spaced by 30-40us).

I have also read this paper on the subject : https://www.net.in.tum.de/fileadmin/bibtex/publications/papers/MoonGen_IMC2015.pdf  but sadly i cannot use tx queue rate control on i40e (only available on ixgbe), so i can't tell if this could be a solution. I am currently evaluating the "fill gaps with bad packets" solution, but it is more a dirty hack to me than a proper solution.

 

Finally, i am not familiar on how the NIC is supposed to behave on the matter. Maybe this NIC is not ideal for what i'm trying to do, and an other one could be better.

 

Any advice is welcome

 

Thanks

Latest Intel Network Connections versions - NCS2Prov.exe constantly generating millions of I/O calls scanning the C drive for all *.INF files

February 16, 2017, 7:44 pm

Platform is a Dell E6520 Latitude

NIC is the Intel 82579LM GigE

Windows 7 Enterprise x64, fully patched and up to date

Drivers are the latest available from the Intel site.

 

After updating to the latest version of the Intel Network Connections (INC) v20.7, 201.0 and 21.1 there is a problem when

the Configure button in the NIC properties is selected. Among other things this launches the ncs2prov.exe with this command line.

     "C:\Program Files\Intel\NCS2\WMIProv\NCS2Prov.exe" -Embedding

This program spends the next several minutes issuing millions of I/O calls to enumerate items in the registry and then scan what appears to be most of the C: drive looking for every *.INF it can find among other things...

 

Tracing this with ProcMon from the MS System Internals tools counts >3.5 million events just from launching the program.  If the machine did not have an SSD, this process would have likely taken a VERY long time in the range of tens of minutes at least I would think.  As it is, it takes a minute or two where the machine appears to be not responding to the Configure request at first launch.

 

I have tried all three of the latest versions as describe, but they all have the same issue.  Once the program is loaded finally, selecting a different tab starts the same behavior over again and a single tab can take minutes to display and update.  A tab change generates about 2.1 million events each time...

 

Does anyone know how to stop this behavior?  Why is it scanning the entire C: drive looking for *.INF files?  It is not actually reading their contents most of the time that I can see, it just rescans the C: looking for them....  I know what the .INF and .CAT files are for and generally understand at least the basics of installing drivers and their support files.

 

It does not appear that it actually has anything to do with the hardware platform, but is a problem with the INC software running on Windows 7 x64.

 

Any thoughts as to how to stop this would be appreciated.  We can switch back to even older versions, if we knew where the problems were introduced.  Apparently this has existed for a year or maybe more based on the version we have tested thus far.  The drivers overall work well and are much better that the official Dell drivers which do not allow most of the hardware features of the NIC driver to be exposed.  (RSS, R/W buffers, TCP checksum off-loads, disable EEE, etc...)  They are performing at ~60% of the network wire speed instead of about 35% with the OEM drivers.

 

Thank you,

VLAN adapter not working after reboot - Win10, 22.0.1

February 17, 2017, 4:44 pm

Following all the events at I211/I217-V Windows 10 LACP teaming fails and networking - USB to Ethernet adapter supporting multiple virtual LANs - Hardware Recommendations Stack Exchange, we now have an Ethernet driver that should properly support the Intel Advanced Networking Suite (iANS) under Windows 10.

 

Using Windows 10.0.14393 with all updates installed, with an I217-LM adapter and the 22.0.1 driver installed.  Things seem to be very flaky.  My focus here is primarily on being able to work with multiple VLANs, with no trunking at present.

 

First - when creating new VLANs, ensure that the "Network Connections" window or any similar windows other than the "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection * Properties" dialog are closed.  Not doing so will frequently result in the operation hanging indefinitely.  (I remember the same from when we had the working drivers here in Windows 7 and Windows 8 days.)  Even with the other windows closed, sometimes it is taking almost 5 minutes to create a new VLAN - but it takes even longer to do so with the "Network Connections" window open (if it completes at all).

 

With this out of the way:  Add a new VLAN10.  Only once one VLAN is created can we then create the "Untagged VLAN" (ID 0).  Reboot.  Everything still works and comes back up as expected.

 

Add a 2nd tagged VLAN, say VLAN11.  Reboot.  The "Untagged VLAN" fails to pull a DHCP lease.  The virtual adapter shows packets being sent and received.  I ran Wireshark on the Untagged VLAN adapter, saw DHCPDISCOVER packets go out, and other unrelated broadcasts and packets coming back - but no DHCPOFFERs returned.  I.E., it seems to be missing traffic in that state.  Disable the Untagged VLAN adapter, re-enable, and it instantly comes back with a valid lease.  This is constantly repeatable.  Nothing is even connected to the other side of these VLANs yet (the connected switchport isn't even trunked).  Remove the 2nd tagged VLAN leaving only one tagged VLAN and the untagged, and things work much better - but this kind of defeats the purpose.

 

Here's my ugly hack of a work-around for now:  Add a Windows Scheduled Task to run at System Startup, and to run with highest privileges.  Use a PowerShell similar to the following as the action:

 

$(  Get-Date  Write-Host "Starting..."  ipconfig.exe /all  Write-Host "Restarting..."  Restart-NetAdapter -Name "Ethernet - Untagged" -Confirm:$false  ipconfig.exe /all  Get-Date  Write-Host "Done."
) *>&1 > C:\FixIntelNetwork.log

 

I was worried about timing, and could add a 30 second delay or such in the startup trigger.  However, the ipconfig outputs show that this wasn't necessary.  In the first ipconfig output, the adapter was present and already had an auto-configured 169.254.x.y IP address.  In the second ipconfig output, a proper DHCP lease was shown.

 

As I don't have anything on the other VLANs to test with yet, I still need to determine - but may have to reset the other VLAN interfaces at startup as well.

Internet keeps dropping, Win10

Hi,

 

My internet keeps dropping every 10 minutes or so, it's a new computer with an ASRock B250M Pro4 motherboard, and a wired ethernet connection. My phone does not have any problems with the same router, neither did my previous computer.

 

I've read a bunch of solutions around the web, the main one is to go to Device Manager -> the network adapter -> Properties -> Power Management, and then turn off the "Allow the computer to save power" option.

 

This option wasn't there, and my settings looked something like this http://i.imgur.com/PBgPCSs.png which I assume is because the driver is newer than when that solution was proposed. I turned all the options in this dialog off, and it made no difference. I

 

I then installed several different versions of the drivers on the intel site, some with the "save power" option, and none of them stopped the issue from occurring.

 

What are my next steps?

X710 L2 filter packet steering

February 19, 2017, 1:57 am

Hello,

I am trying to  use the x710 MAC/VLAN filtering option to steer packets to receive queues based on strict MAC address match.

I need to filter and steer around 100 MAC addresses to 8 receive queues.  Because of the development environment constraints I cannot use

SRIOV, IOV, VEB or flex partitioning.

 

My configuration is as follows:

Default simple switch configuration

One PF and one VSI with 8 queues

RSS, Ether type and Flow director filters are disabled and MAC/VLAN filter is  enabled.

I am  setting toQueue flag to steer packets to the appropriate queue.

 

However I don't see packets getting steered to the desired queue. Packet steering is not happening and packets always  land  on the same queue.

Do I need to configure the switch with "Set Switch" command to get filtering work as described above?

How do I initialize the VSI to support the above flow.

Are there any other other configuration settings that need to be done to get the packets steered as described above?

 

Thanks,

Sony
