I had connected both NIC cards back to back using a cat6 cross cable. One of the machines is then connected to a RAID Array. If I force 1000baseTX on both NIC cards, their connection status shows: no carrier. However, if I force 100baseTX on both NIC cards, then their connection status shows: active What could be the problem here? The bge0 NIC cards not supporting 1000baseTX settings or am I missing something? Both machines are running on FreeBSD-6.2.
