Looking to see if anyone can offer advice as to how to get an INTEL I350 card installed and working correctly on my system (running RHel7 server, x64, kernel 3.10.0-862).

I downloaded the latest driver from Intel, followed their instructions for installing the driver (both rpmbuild -tb and make install (from src directory) both complete but with errors. If I run lsmod |grep igb I do get output from the command. However, I'm not seeing any new interfaces coming up. I'm just not sure what I'm missing. Should I see fiber interfaces as a result of an ifconfig -a command? I'm just not sure.

Thanking you in advance for any advice given.

The following is output to the command; lspci -nn | grep -I eth

If I do an lsmod and grep for "igb, it is there. So the system does see the card. I'm just not sure how to go from here to get viable interfaces that I can then configure wtih an IP.

Probably reboot would be easiest. But, you can do it manually too: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/redhat...configuration/

The system has already been rebooted several times. The problem is that there are no new "ethx" interfaces to configure with the I350 card installed.

OK, the interface configuration files are in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/. Maybe RHEL doesn't automatically generate them. Just look at the ones you have already and adapt them. It's pretty self explanatory.
