Why some of the interfaces are not getting loaded even after NIC card got detected in the system ?
Issue
- System has some onboard cards and some NIC cards added later.
- Below is the
lspcioutput showing all the NIC cards detected. - Out of these 8 cards, in
ifconfigoutput can see only 6 interfaces got loaded.
