Hi
I've just had this card installed in our servers:
ix0 at pci0:12:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x7a118086 chip=0x10fb8086 rev=0x01
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82599EB 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap 01[40] = powerspec 3 supports D0 D3 current D0
cap 05[50] = MSI supports 1 message, 64 bit, vector masks
cap 11[70] = MSI-X supports 64 messages in map 0x20 enabled
cap 10[a0] = PCI-Express 2 endpoint max data 512(512) FLR link x8(x8)
speed 2.5(5.0)
cap 03[e0] = VPD
ecap 0001[100] = AER 1 0 fatal 0 non-fatal 1 corrected
ecap 0003[140] = Serial 1 90e2baffff2b92e8
ecap 000e[150] = ARI 1
ecap 0010[160] = SRIOV 1
Which yielded the following error initializing the driver:
ix0: <Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver, Version - 2.5.0> port 0xbcc
ix0: Using MSIX interrupts with 9 vectors
ix0: Unsupported SFP+ Module
device_attach: ix0 attach returned 5
ix0: <Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver, Version - 2.5.0> port 0xbce

The README in /usr/src/sys/dev/ixgbe claims that the module we have,
AFBR-703SDZ-IN is supported. I had to make the following change
to get the driver to attach. I get the feeling it's not the
correct fix however:
[firewall2.jnb1] /usr/src/sys/dev/ixgbe # svn diff
