Howdy, Modern 10G NICs have the ability to have different types of cables plugged into them. There is a standard for the values contained in the cables which can be read here:
http://www.10gtek.com/templates/wzten/pdf/SFF-8472-(Diagnostic%20Monitoring%20Interface).pdf It's probably the case that several NIC cards support changeable optics on FreeBSD at this point. I know that Chelsio T4 cards do. I would like to put proper definitions from this document into our source code. Does anyone have a preference for where and how this is done? I figure something like net/sff8472.h would be the way to go. Comments?
