Adding Physical Nic ~~causes Issues~~

JBelthoff

I have this motherboard: https://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Atom/X10/A1SRi-2758F.cfm

I am trying to install this adapter: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/network-io/ethernet/gigabit-adapters/server-i350-t4v2.html

Everything works after installation but my WAN moves to the first physical slot of the adapter, like below, and even though I can simply change the cables, when I do I can no longer access the Web GUI. I assume that's because the MAC has changed…

Regardless, can someone please give me some advice to achieve this without starting an install from scratch?

I would like the additional PCIe NIC's to be igb4, igb5, igb6, igb7. Is that possible?


BEFORE:
igb0	WAN	Native 1
igb1	LAN	Native 2
igb2	OPT1	Native 3
igb3	OPT2	Native 4

AFTER:
igb0	WAN	PCIe 1
igb1	LAN	PCIe 2
igb2	OPT1	PCIe 3
igb3	OPT2	PCIe 4
igb4		Native 1
igb5		Native 2
igb6		Native 3
igb7		Native 4

Try to edit the config manually and replace the mac address of the interfaces.

Nope. They are in the order the "BIOS" assigns them.

Either reassign the interfaces to the new names that correspond to the same interface or re-patch to the new interface with the same name.
