Morning!

I have one PVE with kernel 6.2 and want to disable rx-vlan-offload resistent for an Intel X710-DA2 card. I know how to do this with ethtool -K but this doesn’t survive reboots.

Any hint which cfg file has to be modified to disable this on boot up?

Thx ☺️
 
You can do it with `post-up` commands in /etc/network/interfaces.

Thx. Did it with:

post-up /sbin/ethtool -K bond0 rxvlan off
post-up /sbin/ethtool -K bond0 rx-vlan-offload off

@cwt came across this thread of your struggling with what might be related to similar issue I'm facing with x710.

Have LAN and WAN (VF functions -- SRIOV) on same trunk (router on stick) and for whatever reason pfSense is not able to get DHCP IP on WAN VLAN. I suspect rx-vlan-offload is the culprit but that did not help either, promisc on, trust on and spoofchk on. And if I use VMBR on same NIC, everything works, so issue is still how VF is handling the VLAN tag internally.

I'm curious if similar issue prompted you to turn off rx-vlan-offload because it was stripping VLAN lag on RX side? Any other insight to address this issue?
