Hi,
        There were a bunch of changes to RELENG_8's em driver a week ago.
Perhaps update to that first.  But what sort of em nics do you have ?
pciconf -lvc will show it.  I have a number of boxes with 20 or more

 ifconfig | grep ^vlan | wc
      20     120    1562

Most of which are pcie based, or onboard 82574L types.
