ESXI 5.5 License for PowerEdge T110 II

Hi All,

I am trying to set up a lab at home to learn Networking / Admin etc and I have an old PowerEdge T110 II server, I have found DELL 5.5 image for the server. As i can't install ESXI 8 comes up with Network Adapter Not Found.

I was wondering will my ESXI 8 license work or where can i find license / register for one for ESXI 5.5 ?

Greatly appreciate any help 🙂

You can’t get free licenses for versions that are out of support, so not 6.x or anything older.

Best option might be to get a network adapter which is supported on 7.x or later.
