F-tile ethernet hard ip in agilex7

I generate 200G ethernet F-tile hard ip that base on agilex7, the IP configuration as follow:

Our current test setup uses our custom development boards interconnected with Mellanox CX-8. The link fails to come up regardless of whether the CX-8 is configured in forced mode or auto-negotiation mode. Could you advise on how I should troubleshoot this issue next?

Additionally, I would like to ask: Does the F-Tile Ethernet Hard IP support filtering packets smaller than 64 bytes? I cannot find the corresponding configuration options in the IP configuration GUI.
