Hi,

  I have a linux based firewall that seem to hang because one of its ethernet port stops working. I suspect bad hardware, but could be a driver issue also. So far, I have only been able to reboot to get it working. However, I prefer to reset the port to get it working without a reboot. Is it possible to do something with ifconfig/ifup/ethtool?  Simple ifdown followed by ifup does not fix it.

My system is this:

It is running this:

   Linux yoda 5.18.0-0.deb11.3-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian
   5.18.14-1~bpo11+1 (2022-07-28) x86_64 GNU/Linux

   PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"
   NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
   VERSION_ID="11"
   VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
   VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye
   ID=debian

   /etc/debian_version = 11.5

This is the lspci output on the two ethernet port.

   03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

Note that the kernel is from backport to work with newer intel CPU (N5105)
