    That is an interesting bit of information. Why do you think it
    requires that and what is the reason behind it?
    
    This network adapter uses "tg3" driver and its version (3.137) from
    kernel 4.19.0-13-amd64 could have problems according to HP advisory.

    You should check out support section of HPE web site, there could be
    firmware updates for your network adapter. [2]
    
    If your server is not at remote location, you can temporarily
    blacklist "tg3" module to prevent it from loading and see if your
    system will still get similar errors without 331T adapter.
