LAN interface keeps going down every so often and comes back up on its own
-
Experiencing a strange issue here. LAN interface keeps going down and coming back up on its own. It seems to happen every 20 - 40 minutes or so and is down for about 3 - 10 minutes and comes back up on its own. VPN's stay up, WAN stay up, OPT1 stays up.
Little background, brand new box, supermicro hardware. We are using 2.2.5 pfsense. We have tried reloading with same issue.
If I go into my system logs this is what we see when the LAN port comes back up:

An Update … I just wanted to list the hardware we are using in case this would help.
SuperMicro
SYS-E200-9B (Model Number)
X11SBA-LN4F (Motherboard Part Number)
Intel I220AT (Ethernet Chipset Used) -
disclaimer: this is just speculation based on some googling
is tso offloading enabled? if yes => try todisable it.
ifconfig igb1-tso
These commands may be placed into a shellcmd tag to execute at boot time to make the change persistent. (install shellcmd package)
this appears similar for em-driver (no clue if its related).
