Hi,
I am trying to establish a uni-directional Ethernet link where a singular fiber is used to transmit data to the receiver where both sides use ixgbe as driver. The Rx of the transmit side and the Tx of the receive side are not physically connected, like in a Data diode scenario. The problem is, as soon as I detach the tx line from one side, both side link status goes DOWN. is it possible to mask link status in the ixgbe driver?
