Subject: 10GbE drivers for the iMac Pro

I assume that the macOS that's bundled with the iMac Pro has 10GbE driver software. If so, I'm wondering if there's any collision with the 10GbE software driver code that I believe the

Thunder3 10G Network Adapter T3NA-T3LNITY-AKT

requires ?

That is, if this adapter were to be connected to one of the TB3 ports to provide a 2nd 10GbE network connection will there be any issue with macOS having maybe its own 10GbE drivers ?

Another question for using this AKiTiO adapter would be for it to be connected to a 2016 15" rMBP that has 4x USB-C (TB3) ports and then running a ethernet cable from it to the iMac Pro's 10GbE port..... will this work without issues I ask ?
