Hello,
I just started using OpenWrt from pfsense.
Last month my GS110TP died and I decided to buy A2SDi-16C-TP8F to merge everything into only one device (firewall - media converter - switch)
Configuration is fast and it's very good, but I have a problem with SFP+ ports on my board.
My ISP uses 1gbe FTLF1319P1BTL and it worked well with my netgear and with their media converter "allied telesis at gs2002" so I can connect and have internet, but I'd like to remove media converter and try to use only the supermicro if possible.
If I connect the converter to my supermicro link goes up but connection doesn't work.
So I thought that can be the sfp/sfp+ compatibility so I bought the FTLX1471D3BCV that is a dual rate connector, but also after I set the speed it doesn't work, always link up but no connection.
ethtool -s eth7 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off
I thought to connect both connectors to supermicro board and connect them with LC/LC patch and then they get the link.
so should be something that I'm missing, but I don't know what, can you help me?
thanks
