maybe network manager (if you have that thing running) on the
computer doing funny things with the interface? I had this
issue with some 4g dongles in the past.

Hi,

Small correction:

*Questions:*
I notice that the test stops when the link goes down every 45 seconds. This happens for all types of tests(with and without GUI). Kindly let me know how to debug this - i.e. why the link goes down every 45 seconds?

Regards
Venkatesh

    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 -

    *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
