Messages shows kernel: ixgbe 0000:13:00.1: failed to load because an unsupported SFP+ module type was detected. (Doc ID 1467535.1)

Last updated on OCTOBER 20, 2021

Applies to:

Sun Fire X4170 M2 Server - Version Not Applicable and later
Linux x86-64

Symptoms

X4170 M2 server has two dual-port 10GbE cards installed, yet an ifconfig -a only shows one interface from each card (plus the 4 on-board 1GbE interfaces).

 

The physical interfaces that do not appear in ifconfig -a do not have the following line associated with them in an lspci -v output:

Kernel driver in use: ixgbe

The working interfaces do.
