Description

If something is installed in the SFP+ Ports on the XG-1537 then the interfaces ix0 and ix1 will not come up during boot or reboot.

Start system without any SFP+ installed. Install SFP+ into adapter. It is possible to get link on ix0 and ix1.
Reboot system and ix0 and ix1 is no longer available in the system. This also means that interface assignment is borked and therefore the firewall cannot come back after powerloss or planned reboot without physical presence. To bring back up you need to physically remove both SPF+ devices and then reboot - wait until boot is finished and then reinsert.

ix0 LAN connected with 10Gbit DAC cable - currently not connected in the other end.
ix1 WAN connected with 10Gbit LC optics connected to ISP

ix1: link state changed to UP

In /boot/loader.conf.local I have added:

hw.ix.unsupported_sfp="1"
hw.ixgbe.unsupported_sfp="1"

In the System Tunables I have added

hw.ix.unsupported_sfp
hw.ixgbe.unsupported_sfp
Both with value = 1

Any suggestions or other things I should add to this bugreport?

  • Status changed from New to Not a Bug
  • Priority changed from Urgent to Normal

This seems more like a configuration issue, such as not having a high enough mbuf allocation setup.
