E610-XT2 FW

Hi Guys:

               We are currently evaluating the E610-XAT2 solution and have proceeded with the purchase of the E610-XT2 reference board for OCP integration.

               However, we observed that in firmware version 1.01, the Port 2 Link/ACT LED would blink during activity. After updating the firmware to version 1.21 using the E610_NVMUpdatePackage_v1_21, the LED no longer blinks during activity.

               How should we proceed to ensure normal LED functionality? Are there any methods we can use to fix the LED issue?

Hi MaxKao,


Good day to you.


We appreciate you reaching out to us regarding the reported issue. To assist you more effectively and provide an accurate solution, we kindly request the following details:


1. System/motherboard model used with the E610-XT2

2. BIOS/UEFI version currently running on the system

3. Network driver version installed on the host system (Windows/Linux, please specify OS and driver source).

You may also refer here for full list of OS compatibility:

4. Does the LED remain completely off, or is it lit solid without blinking during traffic?

5. Are both ports showing the same behavior, or only Port 2?

6. For clarification, the Port 2 still able to establish connection after the update, correct?

 

Once we have this information, we will be able to guide you better and provide the appropriate support.

 

Looking forward to your response.
