hi everyone

I want to know, is there any way to update NIC firmware from iLO?

I want to update HP Ethernet 1Gb-2 2-port 332T Adaptor.

Hi,

I never tried this personally, but I found this documentation, see if this option is available in your server iLO.

Thank You!

NIC's firmware cannot be updated with your solution.

Hi @sasanalem,

Yes you are right, NIC firmware is not supported, I found this doc, where it specifies the following:

Supported firmware types

Many types of firmware update are supported, depending on the server platform. These types include: 

• iLO
• System ROM/BIOS
• Chassis
• Power Management Controller
• Programmable Logic (CPLD)
• Backplane
• Language Packs

Thank You!
