Unfortunately I don't have many other bits of 10G hardware to go replacing things, but I'm a bit at a loss. This is on 7.1rc6 apart from disabling autoneg wasnt too sure what to do. I tried forcing it to 1GB but the other side (linux won't let me):
$ sudo ethtool -s ens2 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off
netlink error: link settings update failed
netlink error: Invalid argument
Any ideas what could be wrong here? It seems everything should be working?

same problem with you, I have some 10g optical device, but x520-da1 is the only pci-e device. so i can not locate the problem either.
Huawei router + 10g Optical Module————rb5009 + 10g Optical Module work.
Huawei switch + 10g optical module————rb5009 + 10g Optical Module work.
x520-da1 in windows computer+10g optical module————rb5009 + 10g Optical Module NOT work.(no matter set to 10g Full-Duplex or not)
x520-da1 in windows computer+1g optical module————rb5009 + 1g Optical Module work.
x520-da1 in ubuntu 21 computer+10g optical module————rb5009 + 10g Optical Module NOT work.(it's always set to 10g Full-Duplex or not) same nic link is down with you
x520-da1 in ubuntu 21 computer+1g optical module————rb5009 + 1g Optical Module work.

so i think the problem is not optical module, Im tying to get another card like mcx411a to do more test

mcx311 is working good……but it doesn't support sriov……so im still working on my x520-da1.
I tried to use dac to connect.still not working

Have you tried changing the sfp-rate-select setting? Apparently with some transceivers that setting matters.

hi,

i've same problem with auto negotiation activated. Firmware 7.1.1.
Proxmox server with X520DA1.
2m DAC cable.
Auto Negotiation --> incomplete.
Test manual config 1Gb, without sucess.

I too am having the same problem, same setup. I'm only trying with a Copper DAC, but the link won't stay up. Anyone make any progress with this?

I have same issues, RB5009+ CRS328 connected by 3m-long Mikrotik sfp+ DAC. And link between RB5009 and CRS328 is up and down from time to time.
The auto negotiation also shows "incomplete".

I have the same setup and the same issue: RB5009+ (7.1.1) connected to CRS328 (6.49.2/7.1.1) using XS+DA0003. "Incomplete" auto neg status and link is flipping multiple times a day.

Does anyone else have any information on this? Is there expected to be a software fix for this? Is this simply just incompatible hardware? Does anyone have any good alternatives to using a 10G DAC with a X520-DA1?

Works for me with a pair of UBNT UF-MM-1G (between RB5009 and a RB260GSP). MikroTik's own S+DA0001, appears to be incompatible

Today I tested my friend's RB5009+ and it has the same issue - incomplete auto neg and port flipping. So, or it is some hardware issue (I hope not) or just software.

Interesting behaviour. I have an RB5009 running 7.1 connected to a CRS328 running 7.1 (although it also worked when running 6.48) connected via a Mikrotik DA0001. It's never had a connectivity issue, so I wonder what's different for you folks?

UPDATE: I checked mine in more detail and there's no flapping issues but it does say Autonegotiation incomplete with a link speed of 10Gbs.

Do a constant ping to the RB5009 from the CRS side of the network. I thought SFP was running stable on my rb5009 but although the logs don't show port flapping, occasionally something happens which causes the link to drop/reset and about 3 consecutive pings are dropped (Windows ping with default parameters)

Same issue using intel xxv710-da2(the sfp28 version) and rb5009
I tried dac cable and aoc cable(both two are oem cable), both side recognized sfp+ module, with same issue(up and down and up and down ...)

Work fine with same cable connected to rb4011 and crs305
now I use crs305 to 'bridge' the connection of the intel xxv710 card and rb5009

hope it will fix in future

I had another go with a different X520-DA2 card and the behaviour is identical.

Has someone opened a support ticket with mikrotik about this?

The link even worked for long enough for me to get an IP before dying when i enabled flow control and autonegociation.

I am having the same issue on a CRS326-24S+2Q+RM running RouterOS v6.49.6. The ports consistently flap towards the X520 Cards. Running 5m DAC cables and not sure what else to try here.

So I should have mentioned this issue on the RB5009 is fixed since 7.3.x, obviously I have no idea on the CRS326.
