Hi,
There is currently no native drivers in ipxe for that NIC:
ipxe $ perl src/util/niclist.pl | grep -i -C 5 16d7

That is a 10G nic? "BCM57414 NetXtreme-E 10Gb/25Gb RDMA Ethernet Controller"

Unlikely to work but you could try and add
PCI_ROM(0x14e4, 0x16d7, "14e4-16d7", "14e4-16d7", 0),
to src/drivers/net/tg3/tg3.c
