Hi,
Recently I have a chance to test Gigabit ethernet card based on
82543GC-F chipset based(Intel Pro/1000 F adapter, I think. It is at
data center so I didn't see the board) with FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE.
The problem is that FreeBSD does detect the card, but can't do
networking.
At booting with newest em (from intel) or gx driver in kernel, it shows:
gigatest# ifconfig em0
em0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::203:47ff:fede:a186%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
ether 00:03:47:de:a1:86
media: Ethernet autoselect
status: no carrier
No carrier message showed. Assuming the cable has no problem, what's
the problem of this adapter? Here is part of dmesg:
em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection, Version - 1.0.9> mem
0xfb010000-0xfb01ffff,0xfb020000-0xfb03ffff irq 9 at device 10.0 on
pci1
em0: Speed:N/A Duplex:N/A
This card only has one 1000baseSX interface. em/gx doesn't support
1000baseSX type cable?
