freebsd stable - Mar 2018 - FreeBSD 11.1 ixl(4) interface does not negotiate at 100 Mbit/s

Hi all,

any ideas why a current RELENG_11_1 system with ixl(4)
onboard interfaces might not negotiate with a switch that
has only fast ethernet?

status: no carrier					on the host
line protocol is down (notconnect)		on the switch

dmesg:

Thanks for any hints,
Patrick

Please install

net/intel-ixl-kmod

and try again.

What is the device id (pciconf -lv)? I'm pretty certain that there
aren't any devices supported by ixl that are capable of 100Mb. AFAIK, the
X710/X722 BASE-T devices are all 10G/1G.
