Thanks for the information on 8.4.  Unfortunately most of NICs are from
Dell so will need to push them to produce another update package and would
prefer to wait till we know what is required to fix our issue.

I loaded 8.6 and 8.7 on one of our test hosts and our issue still exists so
will continue pushing the open case we have with Intel as that is where we
still think this lies.

Cheers,
Ben
