      Do you actually see the new driver loaded though:

      [22.01-RELEASE][admin@6100-2.stevew.lan]/root: sysctl dev.ix.0.iflib.driver_version
dev.ix.0.iflib.driver_version: 4.0.1-k

          Ok, so it did load and you are still seeing the errors reported by the latest Intel driver.

          So maybe that is the correct count and in fact the driver in 2.5.2 was misreporting them.

          Steve

              do you have any idea how to solve? it's very strange only "errors in"

                @stephenw10 That is a very real possibility. I'm fine with that answer if it is indeed what is happening.

                  @cescofs said in X520 errors in 2.6 and 22.01?:

                  pfSense does nothing with the MAC stats, the driver updates them directly.
                  You could try the alternative driver in 2.5.2.

                    Something must have happened with 2.6. Anyway, I connected the pfsense directly to my pc and.....zero errors!!!!

                      Ah, interesting. So before it was via a switch? I wonder what's different there then. Something enabled on that port? Flowcontrol mismatch maybe?

                        @stephenw10 That's an interesting data point. My pfSense box is connected to an Aruba S2500 and @cescofs is using an Aruba JL261A. Could very well be some weirdness with link negotiation?

                          These are packets from the switch to the lan interface of pfsense. So there are no logs errors about them on the switch.
                          The only thing we know is that the lan interface has problems for a few of them.....

                              @cescofs I have not. Checked my port settings on the switch side; flow control is disabled and the interfaces properly auto-negotiated. I can't really remove the switch from the equation since it's a core part of my home network. I haven't tried changing the driver but may do so if the total number of errors goes to an uncomfortable number, currently it's sitting at 1425 which is relatively low.

                                Adding to this list, I have an Intel X550-T1 (WAN) in my Thinkserver ST50 connected to a Metronet ISP, Nokia-branded ONT with symmetrical 1Gb. The ONT, besides basic provisioning, is a media converter to copper ethernet. Have been running rock solid on 2.4/2.5 CE variants for years.

                                After fresh install to 2.6 CE, I too am getting errors on WAN IN only (intel x550-t1). Correlated this to sysctl dev.ix.0 and dev.ix.0.mac_stats.checksum_errs: 9. These 9 checksum errors match the WAN in errors. Of course the error count resets after reboot, hence the following code shows 0 chcksum errors for int ix0:

                                So far on ix0 int:

                                • Disabled FC
                                • Checked disabled hardware checksum offload
                                • Verified int is running latest Intel driver (believe it's the latest - 4.0.1-k)
                                • Checked latest firmware via Intel bootable update utility
                                • swapped to multiple, new CAT6 patch cords including Commscope and Panduit (no cheap cords)
                                • Bought a new X550-T1 card in case my previous card was dying.
                                • Had Metronet provision a new Nokia G240G ONT and powersupply to no affect.

                                Lastly, I found the following on Intel's Download Center and it seems it couldn't be more applicable to my situation (Intel NIC, ONT, cksum errors):

                                https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19174/disabling-tcp-ipv6-checksum-offload-capability-with-intel-1-10-gbe-controllers.html

                                I've tried modifying INET6 settings via Shell command as per FreeBSD IFCONFIG:

                                -rxcsum, -txcsum, -rxcsum6, -txcsum6
	     If	the driver supports user-configurable checksum offloading,
	     disable receive (or transmit) checksum offloading on the inter-
	     face.  The	feature	can be turned off selectively per protocol
	     family.  Use -rxcsum6, -txcsum6 for ip6(4)	or -rxcsum, -txcsum
	     otherwise.	 These settings	may not	always be independent of each
	     other.

                                Still no changes and errors continue on WAN IN. To be fair, for ~100GiB data in I might have 6-10 errors. I have also now upgraded the 2.6CE to pfSense Plus ver 22.01 with yearly support package.

                                Apologies, not trying to hijack OP's thread but hoping
                                to share more data to the WAN ERRORS IN. Thanks.

                                  Reporting the same on 2.6 with X557 NICs, all 'mac_stats.checksum_errs':

                                  0d91d4f0-05f4-4232-9bc8-7b33bef081f1-image.png

                                    The difference here is that the ix driver in 2.6 includes all input errors in the mac stats value not just crc and length errors:
                                    https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/commit/5574b12aac2bdfe66ec1d9564f932eeec9ac213c

                                    So nothing has actually changed, you are just seeing the errors now that were previously not shown.

                                    Also see: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12904

                                      If we don't have access to the other end of the cable (switch/server) we will never know if this errors are relevant or not ....

                                        I'm not convinced by your answer. I should have seen errors on all nics and in every direction.

                                          Why? The errors could be on one NIC only. You just didn't see them reported in 2.5.2.

                                            Just curious if anyone ever found anything that might explain the source of these errors?
