Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- Before performing a major OS upgrade, Intel recommends that you uninstall the
Intel PROSet(R) feature, perform the OS upgrade, and then reinstall with the
latest version of Intel PROSet. This will ensure all features are available and
avoid potential issues.

- Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 is the last Windows Server operating system
version that supports Intel(R) Advanced Networking Services (Intel ANS).

- Intel 10GbE Ethernet Adapters do not support Microsoft Windows 32-bit
operating systems. They support 32-bit versions of Linux and FreeBSD.

- Even though the UEFI driver states that it supports 'Intel(R) 40GbE' devices,
the driver supports all devices based on the Intel(R) X722, XXV710, X710, and
XL710 controllers, regardless of speed.
