I'm looking throught he source for the ixgbe drivers and see code 
supporting the 82599EB but nothing for the ES. These chips look nearly the 
same but I'm no expert.

I am looking at a Supermicro 10GbE board (AOC-STGN-i2S) trying to 
determine if it'll work under FreeBSD 9.x. Any clue?

The data sheet is here:
