I have a similar issue but with a VIOS, suddenly, when I created a SEA, the network stopped working until I power off the system and then back on, and has something to do with a firmware error in the 10 GbE 4 port RJ-45 adapter. I opened a case and they told me that the current firmware version had error and I need to downgrade it to an older version. I did and the issue was resolved. Maybe the problem you have has the same firmware problem, but I reccomend you to open a case to be 100% sure.

Subject: IBMi Lan console error
Hi, I have a Power 10 with a stand-alone IBM i 7.4 partition. with lan console, The console card is an EN2W PCIe3 4-port 10GbE BaseT RJ45 Adapter.
When I restart the PC I use for the console or when I end the console session, it no longer connects. I just perform an IPL on the power supply and it works again. I've already updated the ACS and changed the cable to UTP CAT 7 with the same result. What could be happening?
