I need to upgrade NIC drives and firmware for my Dell R610.

Code:[root@vps ~]# ethtool -i em1
driver: bnx2
version: 2.2.6
firmware-version: 7.12.19 bc 7.10.0 NCSI 2.0.13

bus-info: 0000:01:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: no

[root@vps ~]# dmesg | grep -i ethernet
[ 1.294715] bnx2: QLogic bnx2 Gigabit Ethernet Driver v2.2.6 (January 29, 2014)Not sure how to do it as I tried the latest available driver based off Dell service tag, from this link:
