So you have to make up all interface starting with eth0, then lanX

ip link set lanX up

When trying to add vlan Ignore

# vconfig add wlan0 6
Added VLAN with VID == 6 to IF -:wlan0:-
nl80211: Ignore RTM_NEWLINK event for foreign ifindex 11
nl80211: Ignore RTM_NEWLINK event for foreign ifindex 9
VLAN: RTM_NEWLINK: ifi_index=11 ifname=wlan0.6 ifi_family=0 ifi_flags=0x1002 ()
VLAN: vlan_newlink(wlan0.6)
VLAN: RTM_NEWLINK: ifi_index=9 ifname=wlan0 ifi_family=0 ifi_flags=0x1002 ()
VLAN: vlan_newlink(wlan0)

first ethx,then lanx described here with ip-address-configuration: http://www.fw-web.de/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:bpi-r2:software#network-configuration

Vlan currently not supported in 4.14 (needs dsa-driver from 4.15)

LEDE for bpi-r2 have some hack in dsa core layer for allowing eth0 mapped into lan0-4, and eth1 mapped into wan. (mutliple cpu port is being utilized).

While it doesn’t do it in upstream because dsa core layer haven’t been able to support more than one cpu port at the current point. So, mt7530 dsa in upstream code still utilize just only one cpu port to follow core’s definition.

But dsa core member is designing and thinking this feature. I believe it should be supported in the near feature.

I can try to add it…if that gives no error i can try to change dts like gary posted.

@garywang is that the dsi or bpi.dts? Can you attach the full files (if i need additional part)?

linkerosa · January 5, 2018, 6:33am

yes, it is one of the necessary patches for changing dsa into enabling dual-mac support on MT7530.

but, it needs another one patch to hack the dsa core to permit the mt7530 enables two cpu ports.

On 4.1.4, for some reason i can’t get 1000Mbps/Full?

[   10.562987] mt7530 mdio-bus:00 lan3: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
[   11.522700] mt7530 mdio-bus:00 lan0: Link is Up - 10Mbps/Half - flow control off

my net is recognized as 1Gb/s

seems your network-equipment does not support/configured for GB-ethernet

xbgmsharp · January 6, 2018, 8:08am

my network support 1Gbps/Full. it is funny the main NIC is 1G but not the lan NIC whic are detected in 10/Full and 100/Full.

eth0 (=cpu-port) is afaik fixed to 1GBs in dts(i)

lan0-4 have variable bandwidth (Auto-Neg/OS-Setting), you see in your ethtool, that 1G is also supported:

Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 
                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 
                        1000baseT/Full 
Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 
                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 
                        1000baseT/Full

i don’t known why a fallback speed is used, on my switch 1G is used on lan0

as you see

Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Link partner advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 
                                     100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full

your switch on the other end supports only 10/100Mbit (handled over auto-neg) or maybe cable, etc…

OK will check might be on my side. The good news with your kernel i can see all 5 NICs, so thanks.

it’s not my work…the dsa-support was working before in 4.14…

bfpa40 · June 24, 2018, 6:52pm

ok excuse my limited knowledge… whats the link to your 4.14 kernel from github and how exactly do you copy over the old kernel?

first things first i guess where is your github link and ill try to google the how to

frank-w · June 25, 2018, 8:03am

You’ll find all info in my wiki

Installation: https://www.fw-web.de/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:bpi-r2:kernel#compiled_414x

I mainly use build.sh to copy kernel to sdcard because i can define name of binary in boot and this makes backup of existing kernel.

If you want to use different names you have to make sure that your new kernel gets loaded by set kernel var to name of your Kernel-binary. If you use my last uboot there are multiple kernel-vars and you can define own menu-entries (needs reload bootmenu before they appear).

Github-link is also on this page

saq18 · September 21, 2018, 1:01pm

Forgive my poor knowledge, the port isolation works for PHY to switch lines and thus all lan-ports are considered to carry information on NIC eth0. If this is true, does the CPU differentiate which lan port is sending the information and how does it do that?

PS- I wish to implement OVS on R2 but the port isolation does not work to parse and redirect traffic from each of the lan ports

bfpa40 · August 16, 2019, 5:29pm

Frank,

         I have your buster build and have all of the Ethernet interfaces working out of the box. The wireless connection I can't seem to get it working at all. It isn't represented when doing the "ip a" command. How do I get the wireless up and operational?

Thanks again for all your help!

-Brian-

frank-w · August 17, 2019, 9:58am

You have to create ap0-device with wmt-tools. See my wiki or any of the wifi-threads

https://www.fw-web.de/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:bpi-r2:wlan#internal

Basicly you need wmt-tools (you’ll find binaries in src-folder - without ext):

config and maybe my wifi.sh

there is a package in my wiki, github releases and my gdrive containing neceasary files
