Interface Speed and Duplex after upgrade.

Hi All,

I have recently upgraded our 3030S from 2.7.2P6 to 4.0.1. I followed the upgrade procedure in the release documentation including parsing the backup through the python migration script.

I encountered many issue when I rebooted and the applied the restoration of the config from the script. one of which is that I can no longer set the speed/duplex on an interface.

Below is the config of an interface prior to the upgrade:
interface ethernet 1
speed 1000
duplexity Full
lldp enable rx tx
lldp notification enable
lldp tx-dot1-tlvs vlan link-aggregation
lacp trunk 2 mode active

after the upgrade the config was as below:
interface ethernet 1
  enable
  lldp enable rx tx
  lldp notification enable
  lldp tx-dot1-tlvs link-aggregation vlan
  trunk-group 2 lacp

when I try changing the speed or duplex I get the following message:
device1(config-if:ethernet:1)#speed 1000
Can not set the interface speed.
device1(config-if:ethernet:1)#duplexity full
Can not set the interface duplexity.

I have tried stripping out all of the config from the interface and shutting the interface down. Still can’t set the speed duplex.

I have also tried other interfaces on the device and it is the same result.

Any ideas?

Hi rwilliams,

This is a known problem in 4.0.1 in the non-FPGA devices. When using a 1GB copper SFP adapter, the port renders to be unusable. We have a fix for the problem and I suggest that you contact A10 support to get your problem resolved.

The bug id is 190318.

Hi Genard,

the build for the upgrade was as follows:

version 4.0.1, build 214
With regards to you comment, I am seeing this issue on the built 1GB Ethernet ports on the 3030S. I am not currently using any SFP modules or ports. Would the bug id 190318 also cover the normal RJ45 ports on the device?

So an update on this.

This has been confirmed as a bug (id 264334) and I am currently waiting on a fix.

Further Update.

Bug (id264334) will be fixed in the next OS code 4.1 which is estimated for release for 31/3/2016
