VMWare support for Intel NIC

Hello guys... 😎

I have a question.

My router server is having TX Hang. Every couple of days. It makes me CRAZY!

[260133.927975] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1 enp1s0f1: RXDCTL.ENABLE for one or more queues not
cleared within the polling period
[260133.963465] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1 enp1s0f1: TXDCTL.ENABLE for one or more queues not
cleared within the polling period
[260134.136672] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1: primary disable timed out
[260134.358982] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1 enp1s0f1: detected SFP+: 6
[260134.508466] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1 enp1s0f1: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control:
RX/TX
[260134.612626] ixgbe 0000:01:00.1 enp1s0f1: Detected Tx Unit Hang
Tx Queue <8>
TDH, TDT <0>, <7>
next_to_use <7>
next_to_clean <0>
tx_buffer_info[next_to_clean]
time_stamp <103df3385>
jiffies <103df339f>

I have tried;

ethtool -K ethX tso gso gro rx-checksumming tx-checksumming scatter-gather tx-esp-segmentation tx-udp-segmentation tx-gso-partial tx-gre-segmentation tx-gre-csum-segmentation off tx-ipxip4-segmentation tx-ipxip6-segmentation tx-udp_tnl-segmentation tx-udp_tnl-csum-segmentation off

It doesn't solve. I also tried changing the NIC. This only happens in 1 port enp1s0f1. The other one, enp1s0f0 is fine. So it seems it's the drivers with my Debian 12.

Therefore, I'm considering switching to VMware to handle my router server. Will VMware support this NIC? What changes do I need to make for my VM inside VMware to be performant and ready to pull some gigs?

I think the NIC is Intel® 82599ES, but 

lspci -v says it's also a subsystem of X520. So, which NIC do I have? Could someone clarify?

We also do the GRE...

I'm excited to solve my issue with Debian 12, and I hope someone here can assist me so I can move to VMware.

Our hardware specs are 3700X, 64GB DDR4, and 1TB NVME.

Thank you, guys. Have a nice Friday. 🙂
