Update: Success with Intel 10GB NICs
The commands below are for a single NIC, such as the X520-DA1. If you have the X520-DA2 or similar, you will need to run them on both the devices. Also, be sure to change the enp2s0 to the proper NIC(s) on your machine. I underlined that part below.
Flashing an Intel X520-DA1 (or X520-DA2) to Use Sonnet Drivers
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32a value 0x12
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32b value 0x72
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32c value 0xb8
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32d value 0x16
Flashing an Intel X520-DA1 (or X520-DA2) to Use Small Tree Drivers
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32a value 0x0a
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32b value 0x00
These two commands only needed if cross-flashing Sonnet to Small Tree:
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32c value 0x86
sudo ethtool -E enp2s0 magic 0x10fb8086 offset 0x32d value 0x80
I hope this helps someone else. I am going to try these on Fujitsu D2755-A11 cards which are Fujitsu versions of the X520-DA2 and will report back. Hopefully this helps someone else.
I just wanted to come in here and say that I followed these instructions specifically and they worked perfectly. Thank you so much!
