We are trying to setup some redundancy for our BE7K's (BE7H-M5-K9) links by using a mix of ports on the motherboard and PCI cards as recommended in the Install Guide.
The install guide lists the three ports on the motherboard as "Dual 1-Gb/10-Gb Ethernet ports (LAN1 and LAN2)" and a "1-Gb Ethernet dedicated management port" but between what's reported in CIMC and ESXI we are only seeing the management port and one other, so 2 ports total. We do also see our NIC cards in the PCI slots. And in CIMC under Inventory > Network Adapters, labeled as "Intel X550 LOM" I only see 2 mac addresses (rather than 3 as I would expect), unless it's a pick one and both of these ports share a mac address.
Does anyone know if the LAN1 and LAN2 ports can be used at the same time? Or is it pick one or the other?
