The chipid is 0x168a14e4 which indicates vendor is Broadcom and device is NetXtreme II BCM57800 10G gigabit ethernet. I guess bxe(4) would be right driver to pick up the controller but it seems there is no support for BCM57800 in bxe(4) at this moment.

It wouldn't make any difference. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
