recommendations for 10GBase Ethernet on OpenBSD

[Steiner Peter]

hello,

i'm looking for recommendations for 10GBase SFP+ network adapters,
anyone has experience with 10G Ethernet on OpenBSD?

i found dual SFP+ PCIe devices with the following drivers:
ix - Intel 82598/82599/X540 PCI Express 10Gb Ethernet device
ixgb - Intel PRO/10GbE 10Gb Ethernet device
myx - Myricom Myri-10G PCI Express 10Gb Ethernet device
oce - Emulex OneConnect 10Gb Ethernet device

cards found at my retailers:
Intel X520-DA2 E10G42BTDA
Intel X710-DA2 X710DA2
IBM X710 for IBM System x 81Y3520
Lenovo 49Y7960
Lenovo 90Y6456
HP 560SFP+ 665249-B21


btw. I'll use IBM (Lenovo) X3550M5 (and maybe HP ProLiant DL360p) Pizza-Boxes
and Extreme Networks 670 (and also HP 5900AF) switches
so the Extreme Network SFP+ modules should be compatible to the NIC


thanx in advance for any field reports

greetings from Austria

Intel X520 cards seem to work nicely in our shop.

Has any one used the Melanox X3 or the Intel 720's? I ask for the vxlan
offload features, which are pretty useful if you are going the SDN way (or
potentially might do)
