Detailed Description
Overview
This release includes Linux* Base Drivers for Intel® Ethernet Network Connections.
- igb driver supports all 82575-, 82576-, 82580-, I350-, I210-, I211- and
I354-based gigabit network connections. - e1000e driver supports all PCI Express gigabit network connections, except
those that are 82575-, 82576-, 82580-, and I350-, I210-, and I211-based*.
Notes
- The Intel® PRO/1000 P Dual Port Server Adapter is supported by
the e1000 driver, not the e1000e driver due to the 82546 part being used
behind a PCI Express bridge. - Gigabit devices based on the Intel® Ethernet Controller X722 are
supported by the i40e driver.

e1000e-x.x.x.tar.gz
Due to the continuous development of the Linux kernel, the drivers are updated more often than the bundled releases. The latest driver can be found on http://e1000.sourceforge.net (and also on http://downloadcenter.intel.com.)
Upgrading
If you currently have the e1000 driver installed and need to install e1000e,
perform the following:
- If your version of e1000 is 7.6.15.5 or less, upgrade to e1000 version
8.x, using the instructions in the e1000 README. - Install the e1000e driver using the instructions in the Building and
Installation section below. - Modify /etc/modprobe.conf to point your PCIe devices to use the new e1000e
driver using alias e1000e, or use your distribution's specific method
for configuring network adapters like RedHat's setup/system-config-network
or SuSE's yast2.
