Hello Andrew,
Thank you for the quick response!!
Apologies in advance for my use of outlook and top-posting, etc...
I've run the raw option and the hex option, and pasted the results below.
Since the raw option printed strange characters on the CLI, I re-ran it,
Sending the output to a file (raw.txt) and attached that file as well.
Pasted from Ubuntu CLI:
tech1@D7:~$
tech1@D7:~$
tech1@D7:~$
tech1@D7:~$
tech1@D7:~$ sudo ethtool -m enp1s0 raw on

Could you dump the raw values. That will make it easier for us to
reproduce this issue, assuming it is ethtool, and not the kernel
