Actually, this is too much, usually link up in less than 100ms.You can
check Data Link Layer indication.

Hello Tyler,
Okay, we need consult more about this suggestion.
May I ask what is setup you run? Is there NIC or on board LAN? I would
like try reproduce this issue in our lab's too.
Also, is same issue observed with same scenario and others NIC's too?
