Max, I'm not sure it's using VLAN acceleration in em(4) that causes _partial_ packet loss. The case you referred to manifested itself in full traffic halt on attached vlan(4) interfaces and not in its partial loss. -- Yar _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
