hEX S shows activity on disabled SFP port without a link

How is this even possible?!

ether2-5 and sfp1 are bridged. The traffic levels seems to match around what ether2 is doing.

Should be fixed in 6.44

Faulty hardware. Recently had similar with a CCR thinking ether5-7 was connected when they weren't.

I enabled the interface and the problem stopped. Very weird behavior. I don't plan on using the SFP port so this doesn't seem to cause any issues.
