See the table below for examples of the recent Intel Ethernet Network Adapters and how they're mapped to controllers and VMware Native Mode API-based ESXi drivers. When selecting a driver from the VMware VCG site, use caution to select the Native Mode API-based ESXi driver because the version number may be lower than the legacy (VMKLinux API-based) driver. For example, the Intel Ethernet 700 Series Network Adapter Native Mode API-based ESXi driver is named i40e n. Native Mode API-based ESXi drivers naming scheme ends with the letter n.
