Kernel Rebuild after NIC installation

Managers,

I am curious about when a kernel rebuild is necessary. I have read a lot
of messages in the archives concerning this topic but none that describe
when a kernel rebuild is necessary. I am installing a NIC in a DS10 that
is not the same nics installed currently.

Does anyone have an understanding of when a rebuild is necessary?
When rebuilding a kernel does the new kernel include all know drivers or
only ones that are needed at rebuild time?

TIA
