Add Fibre Nic to Sophos XG

Question

I need to add a Fibre NIC to my Sophos XG running on my Cisco C220 M4 Rackserver. I inserted the NIC into the Pci slot and then installed Sophos XG. 
 But the NIC won't show up under Interfaces. When booting the device shows up and the LED on the NIC is blinking green. 
 
 How do I get that to work?

Hi Jonas Keller 
 Fiber is indeed supported by the XG. However I see you are trying to install it on a 3rd party hardware device. The PCI fiber card you have installed, the XG may not have drivers/support for it. 
 Below is an article to help you with the Fiber on the XG. I strongly recommend that you utilize VMWare or purchase the hardware based models so that driver support will not be an issue, as both of these systems have been rigorously tested with our development team and specific drivers related to the XG have been written for it.
