Carp strange behavior

Hi list, I have multiple FreeBSD firewalls with carp working well. I have no problem and the vast majority of firewalls works perfectly. But now, I'm with problems with a simple firewall cluster with carp that the state randomly goes to MASTER and randomly returns to BACKUP. Looking to the L1/L2

Igb driver - header split feature

Hi list, I was looking in the igb driver that I use on some Intel nics (dualport and quadport gigabit) and in the source code, the feature: /* ** Header split causes the packet header to ** be dma'd to a seperate mbuf from the payload. ** this can have memory alignment benefits. But ** another pl

Carp vhid with vlan id's alignment

Hi list, I'm planning and testing a new FreeBSD router, with vlans and carp interfaces. There are a lot of vlans, with high vlan IDs. We have, for example: dot1q vlan id: 1530 Iface igb0 vlan1530 carp1530 vhid 10 What do you think in change the carp code to support vhid above 255 (just to

em/igb multiqueue support

Hi, I think that this is an old question I think that Intel 82575 (and another models) hardware are capable of multiple queues both on the receive and the send side. Is it right? Currently the processing of packets is limited to one CPU per NIC. Can we have multiple taskq processes for one N

What is better? Use a SMP kernel or amd64 for network?

Hi list, I have a doubt (don't encountered on google) about what is better for a FreeBSD Router: use a 32bits SMP kernel or an amd64? I know that exists some differences, but generaly, what is better and why? I have a hardware with Xeon Dual processor. Thanks, Rafael __

bge driver and MSI

Hi list, Can the bge driver use more than one MSI message? If possible, what the advantage of this on a SMP system (better CPU distribution on interrupts?)? I have an Broadcom BCM5703X, with 8 MSI messages: -- b...@pci0:1:2:0:class=0x02 card=0x00cb0e11 chip=0x16a714e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
