[9.312] Intel 82572EI e1000e Hardware Unit Hang

Hi,

I have rebuilt one of my firewalls, using a Z87 motherboard and an Intel 82572EI PCIe NIC as eth1/WAN.

I'm now getting a LOT of e1000e "eth1: Detected Hardware Unit Hang" messages, and the firewall stops responding on ALL interfaces including LAN.

I notice the UTM says it is disabling TSO, but that doesn't seem to be enough.

If I run
ethtool -K eth1 tso off gso off  gro off
it gets MUCH better (maybe solved).

Where should I add this to init or udev?

Thanks,
Barry

    I ran the command and then I repeated the updates to Linux and Windows 10 Preview VM's that caused my previous issues with the NIC - not a single failure.

    Thanks for your help.
