Symptoms
1. After BIG-IP reboots, the vxnet interfaces come
up as uninitialized.
2. The driver does not log any issues:
echo "device driver [client-specific driver info] mlxvf5" >> /config/tmm_init.tcl
Impact
Vxnet driver requires manual intervention after reboot.
Conditions
Running BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) v15.1.0.4 software.
Workaround
Tmsh enable/disable interface brings it back up until next reboot.
