Intel Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet IX1-SFP+ card
ONTAP 9.6 and 9.7

Issue

After a reboot while running ONTAP 9.6+ some ports go down for a Intel 10G Ethernet IX1-SFP+ card.
In a multi_LACP ifgroup, those ports will be degraded.
The issue remains after a power off/on of the nodes.
Example of outputs for the "sysconfig -a". In the second one, the ifgroup changes to "partial" with one port down. Any other ports can still be up, even in the same card.:

slot 3: Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller IX1-SFP+ e3a MAC Address: 90:e2:ba:d4:5d:bc (auto-unknown-fd-down) e3b MAC Address: 90:e2:ba:d4:5d:bd (auto-unknown-fd-down)

slot 3: Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller IX1-SFP+ e3a MAC Address: 90:e2:ba:d8:0d:00 (auto-unknown-fd-down) e3b MAC Address: 90:e2:ba:d8:0d:01 (auto-10g_sr-fd-up)

Example of outputs for the "ifconfig", the port reports no carrier.

e3a: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 9000
