It depends on the HW of the server running the ESXi whose network card you want to update. It's not just a matter of VMware, on the contrary the manufacturer of the HW is more linked
For example, DELL has the iDRAC module to use or HP has the iLO (specific HW cards that allow you to manage the HW and update the FW).
Otherwise DELL or HP always have the possibility of having ISOs or USB images from which to update.
So first you need to retrieve the Server model, go to the manufacturer's website and download the FW you need. Then through one of the methods that I told you before you have to do the update.
Then you need to verify that you also have the correct ESXi driver.
Hello,
So you say i need to go on the constructor site to download the driver ? or you can only download the firmware ?
I am on Lenovo with Xclarity, but i don't use it since I upgrade my driver from ESXi cli.
Hello, I agree with @fabio1975 @you need to know the model of the server and manufacturer. For example we have HPE DL380 G10 server and for this HPE has custom images for ESXi what usual comes with pre installed drivers and updates. I also use the service pack for proliant (SPP) to update/upgrade firmware and drivers. So first step would be to find out the manufacturer and model and visit the support side. Once you retrieve this you can attach and install. Please follow a guide to do this or reach out for help, happy to do so anytime
Ok i'll try to download it from Lenovo website.
I'll give you some news asap
