eth2 needs the non-free firmware but eth3 is the one actually connected
to the switch…

63: None 02.0: 10701 Ethernet
  SysFS ID: /class/net/eth2
  SysFS Device Link: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.1/0000:02:00.0
  Hardware Class: network interface
  Model: "Ethernet network interface"
  Driver: "cxgb3"
  Driver Modules: "cxgb3"
  Device File: eth2
  Link detected: no

64: None 03.0: 10701 Ethernet
  SysFS ID: /class/net/eth3
  SysFS Device Link: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.4/0000:04:00.0
  Hardware Class: network interface
  Model: "Ethernet network interface"
  Driver: "e1000e"
  Driver Modules: "e1000e"
  Device File: eth3
