[PVE-User] PVE 5.4 and Intel ixgbe

[Gilberto Nunes]

So here the scenario...
The customer (which is in other city, far away from my current localtion!)
has the Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection
but the GBIC is CISCO and the DAC cable is Mikrotik...
Should CISCO GBIC incompatible with Intel card?? Or maybe the DAC cable
from Mikrotik??
