The driver (.efi file) needs to be included in the EDK II project FDF file to be properly integrated into the binary firmware image. There is a good example of this in the MinnowBoard Max/Turbot project.
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/blob/devel-MinnowBoardMax-UDK2017/Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/PlatformPkg.fdf
Search for "Network Modules" to find the entry where the Realtek & Intel UNDI drivers are included in the build.
Thanks ... br

I contacted Zako's device firmware maintainer to add this driver to the firmware blob.
Meanwhile I am thinking what can I do to try this driver myself (in case if maintainer is busy and will not make the changes quickly).
Is there a way to load this driver programmatically from my UEFI application? So I can request and use SimpleNetworkProtocol. Googling did not give me any clear answer on this topic.
And if it does not work, what are other ways for me to enable the network?
