Hello,
I have sfp+ card XL710TF4, also I have pfsense 2.4.5 but the pfsense not detect the sfp+ under interfaces.
any additional configuration should I do ?
thanks. -
please note that its same of I40E.

Check the boot logs for any error messages from ixl.
Check card is detected at all by running
pciconf -lv
.You can try a 2.5 snapshot, it has newer drivers: https://www.pfsense.org/snapshots/

how I can install the newer driver on 2.4.5 ?
thanks. -
The only way is to compile it in an equivalent FreeBSD version and copy the generated kernel module across.
But you are not at that stage yet. You need to first determine if the card is even detected as a PCI device on your system and what PCI IDs it's shown as.

Hello,
its not recognized, what do you think ?
also I try to upgrade to 2.5 and I have same problem.
thanks. -
It doesn't show at all in pciconf or it just shows up as a 'none' entry?
If it doesn't show at all then a newer driver will not help.
