Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Issues with 10GbE - X540

[Garland McAlexander]

They're autoneg, but I've been trying everything (including forcing to
10GbE).

For testing, I currently have one port set to autoneg, and one port to
10GbE to try and find a solution.

Interesting. So your switch configuration is set to nail the ports at 10Gbe 
rather than allow autoneg?

No no, I understood.

When I set it to 0 and back to 1, the link will lose connection.

Oof, I realized I may not have been clear in how I worded that. What I meant to 
ask is:

What happens when you set en_10gfdx_cap to 0, then back to 1 ?

[Garland McAlexander]

Hah, yes, I tried with both interface 0 and 1.

Changing that back and forth has no change.

Both ixgbe0 and ixgbe1 will show as either 1000 when my switch ports are
set to auto, and will show as STATE - Down and SPEED - 0 when I set my
switch ports to 10GbE.

I trust you set N to the interface instance of ixgbe :) (eg; ixgbe0)

how about setting that to 0, then back to 1?

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Issues with 10GbE - X540

[Garland McAlexander]

Yes, I'm getting a 1GbE link.

Randomly it'll work as 10GbE after a reboot, but another reboot will cause
it to go back to 1GbE.

Running 'dladm set-linkprop en_10gfdx_cap=1 ixgbeN' has no change.

Are you getting a 1Gb link instead of a 10Gb link?

Can you run this:

dladm set-linkprop en_10gfdx_cap=1 ixgbeN

And check the link speed afterwards (dladm show-phys)
