The hardware is a SuperMicro SYS-5018D-FN8T ( https://www.supermicro.nl/products/system/1U/5018/SYS-5018D-FN8T.cfm ) It includes a Intel® Xeon® processor D-1518 with embedded 10G Intel NICs and cs4227 phys to SFP+ ports. The optics in it is an official Intel optics FTLX8571D3BCVIT1 but I tried with some direct attach cables and some active optical tables and other optics as well with the same results. I also tried several peers, including itself (i.e. that board has two ports so I tried connecting one to the other ...) I tried both latest stable 4.4.x and 4.8.0-rc4 kernels There is no errors, just the device stays at NO-CARRIER. Even loading the module with debug=16 doesn't show anything more. Any idea what I can try ? Seems, I'm not the only one ( https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/mailman/message/35267502/ ). This seems pretty similar to me, however there doesn't seem to be a solution :( Cheers, Sylvain PS: Originally posted on netdev, but I was pointed privately to this list which is more appropriate. -------- Debug output : 8: eth6: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:25:90:5d:f8:b2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff bash# ethtool eth6 Settings for eth6: Supported ports: [ FIBRE ] Supported link modes: 1000baseT/Full 10000baseT/Full Supported pause frame use: No Supports auto-negotiation: No Advertised link modes: 10000baseT/Full Advertised pause frame use: No Advertised auto-negotiation: No Speed: Unknown!
