Hi,

*Setup details:*
I am using an USRP N310 and I have the host computer connected to the USRP
via SFP cable. I additionally have a serial connection between the two and
have a screen session running.

*Observation:*
On the screen session, I noticed the following messages:
[ 2151.041079] nixge 40000000.ethernet sfp0: Link is Up - 10Gbps/Full -

*Questions:*
When I have a GNU radio GRC running with an active GUI displaying the
spectrum, I see that it halts at the time when the link goes down.
When I run a file with no GUI active - say IQ samples saved to a file,
things running in the background and I do not see any interruption.


   1. Kindly let me know why I am seeing this issue of link going down
   every 45 seconds and
   2. also if this could potentially affect my tests (all my tests are
   without any GUI.)


Regards
Venkatesh
