Description

In 23.01 the 7100 switch ports do not support auto-MDI/X. A cross-over cable is required to link two ports on the switch or the switch port on two 7100s.

This is a regression since 22.05.

I don't see any recommended patches -- how does this get applied to existing 23.01 installations?

It's a binary change so it requires a new build/kernel, it can't be patched on a running system that way.

Ok so it is not available to 23.01 -- it would have to be a point release then?

switch is not detected under interfaces menu with current build - 23.05.a.20230322.0600

DZ Updated by Danilo Zrenjanin over 3 years ago Actions #8

Tested against 23.05.a.20230405.0600

The switch gets detected correctly and can negotiate the link with SG-1100 and SG-2100.

However, the system crashes after removing the cable from LAN (ETH2) switchport.

This is fixed in current snapshots. The switch ports link MDI and MDIX as expected.

The other issues reported here are unrelated.
