Sathiya-Bluestone Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 The downloaded ova template comes from E1000 Network card. I added a second Network card (after powering off the NetScaler VPX VM) and powered on the ADC VM. It is not showing up as a network card (show interface summary or in GUI) We are on ESX 7 and also we downloaded the latest OVA file for ADC VPX. (We downloaded a couple of days ago from citrix website) My question is that Is VMXNet3 NIC any better on NetScaler VPX. Ok, OK I know VMware recommends it. But how good or bad is using E1000 NIC on a medium sized network? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlStalhood Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Yes, change it to VMXNET3. Recent OVF templates should have defaulted to VMXNET3 for the first NIC. All NICs added should also be changed to VMXNET3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathiya-Bluestone Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 Thanks Carl.. The downloaded version (we had at the time of posting) did not recognize the VMXNET3 card.. There was an article on citrix website, . But the guidelines seems to be for ESXS 5.5 or lower. We are on ESX 7.0 and so I did not experiment it. https://docs.netscaler.com/en-us/citrix-adc/current-release/deploying-vpx/install-vpx-on-esx/configure-vmxnet3 Then , after some discussing we decided to stick with E 1000. (Ours is a small environment). Once again , thanks again Carl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
