Title: Problems With Nics not been able to use
Post by: Tuti1196 on June 25, 2026, 09:54:17 PM
Hello Friends

I have adquiere a Exinda 4062 hardware and succesfully intall opensense , now the hardware itsell shows the comes with 6 nics (https://manuals.gfi.com/en/exinda/help/content/resources/images/appliances/models/4062-back.png)

But only the managment is the only one working the nics present as:

igb0  Intel(R) I210  (Copper)
igb1  Intel(R) I350  (Copper)
igb2  Intel(R) I350  (Copper)
igb3  Intel(R) I350  (Copper)
igb4  Intel(R) I354  (SGMII)
igb5  Intel(R) I354  (SGMII)
igb6  Intel(R) I354  (SGMII)

i understand that ports are like this: 3 Bridge Pairs, 1 Management

Any sugestions?

The number (2x3) is odd. If I had to guess, it's a Rangeley (Silvermont Atom), which normally have four i354 interfaces. If it has a hardware bypass, the three i350/354s could be in bypass mode. You could test this by plugging in two endpoints (any two you can test for connectivity; 1000BASE-T may be easier than 100BASE-TX or lower as you don't have to deal with polarity) (e.g. one test endpoint plugged into E, the other J). If it has a default bypass, it may be difficult to deactivate. Other than that, ya got me.
