How to restore the Ethernet connector?

Question

Server equipment

Hello! Just the other day I took a Supermicro X10SLL-F motherboard for testing , but found that one of the three Ethernet ports does not want to start or work at all. Here's another cool thing. All of you know that in such mat. wards, again, one of the three ports serves as an IPMI interface, or something like that. So, when I connect the cable to IPMI, the idle port goes dead and that's it. I turn it off - the 100 Mbps indicator lights up at the port and the system does not recognize it. That's actually the whole problem ...

I tried to climb into the PCI settings in the BIOS, turned on the LAN Connection, but it's all the same. Thank you in advance! And yes, for information, Intel I217-LM

acts as a network adapter =)

Well, in general, the IPMI port is a network port only for the IPMI system, on the server it is not visible anywhere else.
But in the BIOS / IPMI settings, you can hang IPMI on one of the working ports or its VLAN
