Okay, I know this is an old thread, but I just have run into the similar situation recently. So for those who are *lucky* that they have a Cisco Broadcom 57711 in their Dell system, or even non-Dell (and non-Cisco of course) system, here is the solution to flash firmware under Windows (at least works for me):
1. Got to Dell website and download this file: Network_Firmware_THCKX_WN_7.4.8.EXE
2. Go to Cisco website and download this file:
ucs-c200-huu-1.4.3p.5.iso
3. Extract the Dell .exe file (it is an .zip archive actually) to a folder on your hard drive, say C:\BC
4. Extract the "PNUOSIMG.CGZ" from Cisco .iso file and save it somewhere
5. Download "cpio" for Windows (Google it!)
6. Rename "PNUOSIMG.CGZ" to "PNUOSIMG.GZ" then extract the "PNUOSIMG" to somewhere (say, C:\BC\firmware) using tools like WinRAR or WinZip etc
7. Now, open a command line window and "cd" to C:\BC\firmware, then run:
cpio -i < PNUOSIMG
8. Search for "BCM57711_pci_dual_port.img" in sub-folders - this is the file you want
9. Now go back to "C:\BC", then go into the "payload" folder
10.Run the below command (use "32" if you are on 32-bit machine):
..\64\winfwnx2 [mac_address] upgrade -ib_ipv4n6 ibootv74.02
This is to ensure your iSCSI entry matches the one in Cisco image
11.Copy "BCM57711_pci_dual_port.img" to "payload" folder
12.Run the below command:
..\64\winfwnx2 [mac_address] restorenvram BCM57711_pci_dual_port.img
13.It should prompt a message about reboot machine. You can use the below command to confirm:
..\64\winfwnx2 [mac_address] dir
