Hi @icekingcy,
Sorry for delayed response.
Support of AQC113 is under discussion. There is no estimate when/if it will be supported.

[minduch]

Yes, please add AQC113C that is the controller/driver needed for QNAP's QXG-10G2TB dual 10GBE NIC.

Hi @icekingcy, Sorry for delayed response. Support of AQC113 is under discussion. There is no estimate when/if it will be supported.

Any news, will be supported ?

[dimbez]

Hi @AnonBit unfortunately still no updates on it.

[Breugeltje]

Since the ASUS ProArt X570-Creator mainbord has this network controller onboard and that mainbord is awesome for ESXI and even better when this network controller would be working, i would also be verry happy if there would be support.
by the way Marvell states on there site it's supported in ESXI but creating a support ticket there is kinda made impossible.

I would also opt for adding the AQC113C driver. Now running awsome Z690 AORUS XTREME (rev. 1.0) https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z690-AORUS-XTREME-rev-10#kf which include both a 2.5GB Intel nic (commit supported driver) and a 10Gb AQC113C. Running two NICs would be superb. Especially at 10Gb !!!
Cheers

Hi @AnonBit unfortunately still no updates on it.

Any news, will it be supported on ESXi?

[dimbez]

Hi @SupremeLiam
support of aqc113 is not going to be introduced.

[SupremeLiam]

So does it mean that all NICs using AQC113 will have no driver support for ESXi or Linux?

[dimbez]

For ESXi current status - no plan to introduce support.
For linux - it's supported, here we are talking about ESXi only.

[Breugeltje]

I still don't understand why Marvell advertises this chip to be supported in ESXi.
If it had not i would have bought a other mainboard with more pci-e ports so i could put in a supported 10G NIC.

[dimbez]

@Breugeltje, there are 2 generations of NICs - aqc107 based it's supported and aqc113 based it's not supported.

[Breugeltje]

@dimbez to be clear i don't know if you work for Marvell or not, but in the official datasheet for the AQC113 series ESXi is in the supported OS line. that is why i don't understand why Marvell does not do there part in actually support the OS with a driver

Please please reconsider and add support for the AQC113 in ESXI 6.7?

[ZSG-Studios]

Please please reconsider and add support for the AQC113

[RoboDoc]

Yes. Please, please reconsider and add support for the AQC113x in ESXi8.

[waazdakka]

Hello! :) Any hope of seeing this compatibility arrive one day? Since all the 10Gb card from Qnap are using this chipset, I guess there is some people with the same issue as us...
Who do we need to speak with to add it on the compatibility list?

[showxu]

Please reconsider and add support for the AQC113x in ESXi8.

[mamhuijb]

its a old thread but make the Marvell AQC113CS work in esxi 8 from you side its something than can be done fast
