LabVIEW
Communicate with Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X520-DA2 using Labview
You need to be more specific to what the problem is you think you have. Because this looks simply like a normal (high speed) network card that should be automatically detected by the OS and integerated in the normal network stack (maybe you need to install a specific driver from Intel first). Once the card is integrated into the network stack of your OS, you can simply use the LabVIEW TCP and UDP nodes to communicate over the network and depending on the IP address route it should automatically go over this card or some other network port in your computer.
What OS are your trying to use?
You don't communicate with MAC addresses ever from a user software level! We do not know anything about your network setup but generally you configure the card in Windows Control Panel to use a certain IP address (or DHCP if there is a DHCP server in your network attached to the card) and this IP address must not collide with any other address in your network.
After that you do not communicate with the card at all from an application on this computer. Instead you communicate with an IP address on the network attached to this card. Please explain why you think you need to communicate with the card itself.
This starts to get weirder and weirder. The first image shows a PXI-8101 controller in the device tree. That is a PXI bus controller which requires a PXI chassis to work in. PXI is techincally similar to PCI but physically it is a completely different bus interface. The connectors are not compatible in any way.
Please give us a complete listing of the hardware you have, Operating system and version you use and what else. The Intel network card definitely is not accessed through MAX or LabVIEW directly, no matter what you try to do.

Is there any way to access intel Ethernet card via MAX or Labview ?
No! That is unless you want to do register programming. That requires a complete register documentation from Intel, a few months of solitude in an ivory tower, and lots and lots of patience. But you still have not explained why on earth you believe you have to access this card in any way!! Unless you can explain that in detail I'm out of this thread for good.
And what sort of FPGA based system are we talking about? Please stop providing little pieces of what you try to do. Sit down and write down what you try to do, what type of hardware you have, what software, etc. etc. This should be at least a whole page of information otherwise you haven't worked hard enough! And in addition to at least a whole page of text it MAY contain also some schematics that show the involved hardware components and their connection with each other as well as the type of connection between them. So far it seems you have no idea what you are trying to do and the problem at hand is likely way over your head.
Learn to sit down and write down what you need to do. It helps you too and these notes can be used to explain to others what you try to do.
