原廠的安裝說明在這裡面:

根據 README 的說法, 你必須先安裝好 ESXi 之後, 才能依照他的程序安裝 Driver:

COMMAND LINE INSTALLATION

New Installation

For new installs, you should perform the following steps:

1. Copy the VIB or offline bundle to the ESX server. Technically, you can place the file anywhere that is accessible to the ESX console shell, but for these instructions, we'll assume the location is in '/tmp'.

Here's an example of using the Linux 'scp' utility to copy the file from a local system to an ESX server located at 10.10.10.10:
scp VMware_bootbank_net-driver.1.1.0-1vmw.0.0.372183.vib root@10.10.10.10:/tmp

2. Issue the following command (full path to the file must be specified):
   esxcli software vib install -v {VIBFILE}
   or
   esxcli software vib install -d {OFFLINE_BUNDLE}

In the example above, this would be:
esxcli software vib install -v /tmp/VMware_bootbank_net-driver.1.1.0-1vmw.0.0.372183.vib

Note: Depending on the certificate used to sign the VIB, you may need to change the host acceptance level. To do this, use the following command:
esxcli software acceptance set --level=<level>
Also, depending on the type of VIB being installed, you may have to put ESX into maintenance mode. This can be done through the VI Client, or by adding the '--maintenance-mode' option to the above esxcli command.

或者, 你必須自己將這個 VIB 塞進 ESXi 的開機 ISO 裡面去, 才能在 ESXi Install 時就抓到, 這個過程太複雜, 請自行搜尋 ESXi VIB Customization 會有很多相關作法.
