8200/6100 Intel x553 NIC and certain SFP+ modules
-
Interesting. Then check the stats in the sysctl to see what sort of errors they are:
sysctl dev.ix.0The C3K NICs are limited in the information they can get from modules about the link state. That can mean they negotiate incorrectly or fail to link with some media types. XPON modules that that hide the real link and present to the NIC as something else so there are a few things there that could cause problems.

@stephenw10 SFP in 8200.txt SFP in switch.txt
Here is what I have. I don't know how to interpret this. Lots of errors:
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.rec_len_errs: 20
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.remote_faults: 0
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.local_faults: 53
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.short_discards: 7
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.byte_errs: 1425
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.ill_errs: 873
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.crc_errs: 5468
dev.ix.0.mac_stats.rx_errs: 6374 -
Mmm, interesting no one type....
Check
netstat -mmake sure there's no buffer exhaustion happening. -

Hi @aholmes5
I have the same issue. I connect my Fiber WAN on SFP+ 10G on netgate 6100 with a 10GTEK sfp+10G and my unifi switch on the second WAN on SFP+ 10G on netgate 6100 with DAC 10G cable but my download speed is reduce of 80% but my upload is fine.
Do you found a solution ? -
Are you seeing errors on the interfaces?
Do you have any traffic shaping?
-
@stephenw10
I see some error on interfaces and no traffic shaping configured. -
-
No errors shown there. So some on the WAN?
How are you testing the throughput?
