  • 1.  Listing NICs in ESXi 6 with lspci -p command...

    Posted Jan 13, 2017 07:27 AM

    hi all;

    How can I list NICs in ESXi 6 with lspci command. As far as I know, just appending -p switch is not supported in ESXi 6.

    Thanks

    You can use lspci -vvv if you need to find additional peripherals and devices

    or you can use esxcli network nic list if you only need to list vmnics VMware vSphere 6.5 Documentation Library-esxcli network

    Thanks for your reply;

    As I said before, I need to overcome this problem by using lspci command.

    Any other ideas?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I used lspci -vvv | grep Network and got all 3 nics on my host.
