we have two rhel server redhat 7.6 and redhat 7.2

on the first server 7.2 , the network driver is driver: ixgbe

on the second server rhel 7.6 the network driver is driver: i40e

dose redhat Linux machines with different driver can cause network problems?

Network drivers need to be compatible with network interface cards (NICs), so that the hardware can function properly. Machines can talk to each other regardless of network driver type as far as they use standard protocols like TCP/IP stack.
