Hi, we are testing the new PXE Boot feature of Jetson Linux 35.4.1 on an AGX Orin Devkit.
Unfortunately we experience some very weird networking issue.
On the first boot after flashing a new image, we can establish a network connection and ping other hosts on the network from an UEFI shell and TFTP works. After rebooting, this is no longer possible. It looks like obtaining an IP address from our DHCP server still works and the network config is correct, but that is all:
Shell> ifconfig -l
-----------------------------------------------------------------
name : eth0
Media State : Media present
policy : dhcp
mac addr : XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
ipv4 address : 192.168.167.50
subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
default gateway: 0.0.0.0
Routes (2 entries):
Entry[0]
Subnet : 192.168.167.0

Netmask: 0.0.0.0

DNS server :
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Shell> ping 192.168.167.1
Ping 192.168.167.1 16 data bytes.

We found a semi-useful workaround: resetting the NVRAM in the UEFI via Device Manager → NVIDIA Configuration → Reset Settings & reboot allows us to continue testing the PXE feature once until we reboot again. It’s not ideal, but better than reflashing an image.
Did somebody experience the same issue?
