For Linux at least, the standard driver includes a load-time option to disable vendor check. Just add "options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=1" to your module config and it works just fine.
For anyone who may be going down this road, if you have a two-port Intel NIC, I discovered you have to pass "allow_unsupported_sfp=1,1" or it will only apply to the first port. Hope that helps someone. -- -- Hunter Fuller Network Engineer VBH Annex B-5 +1 256 824 5331 Office of Information Technology The University of Alabama in Huntsville Systems and Infrastructure
