Description
When a mge interface receives mac pause frames, mge interface PHY flag will flip from 0x17
(allow rx and tx)
to 0x7
(block rx and tx).
This issue is noticed only on mge interfaces and in older PHY version - 5d47.37a.47.305 (show chassis firmware detail)
During the issue state, Kernel and BMC counters will show the actual traffic, however, they will get dropped in the PHY.
Solution
Upgrade the PHY version to 5d47.4e7.b7.307.
Please contact JTAC for PHY upgrade instructions.
