Hi,
BCE-based cards looks good on paper, but it's firmware is of poor
quality compared to BGE-based cards.
The BCE-cards could sink 1.48Mpps, but it ftq drops 800Kpps, and the
host sees 600Kpps. TX is ~800Kpps (according to sephe).
That said, I'm using dot1q vlan trunks on both bce and bge

I'm using bge(4) and bce(4) interfaces (Broadcom GBit) and
fxp(4) ones (100 MBit) in enviroments with heavy use of VLANs.
They work very well. There are no problems with the MTU.
Best rega

The Intel ones driven by em(4) (Intel EtherExpress Pro/1000)?
RTL8169/8111/8168 use closed specs, quirks have to be reverse engineered
into the driver.

By now, the list of physical interfaces able of full VLAN processing in
the hardware is limited to the following devices: age(4), bce(4), bge(4),
cxgb(4), em(4), ixgb(4), msk(4), nge(4), re(4), stge(4), ti(4), txp(4),
and vge(4).

Intel fxp or em; Broadcom bge or bce

I´m finding terrible issues using RTL8169 and 3C9x, almost all for the
fact NIC cannot handle MTU a little bigger than 1500 (1500 + vlan
tagging).
I don´t wish reducing MTU.

Hello, guys!
Please, can someone point a NIC, PCI 2.2 specs, full VLAN capable under
FreeBSD?
I´m finding terrible issues using RTL8169 and 3C9x, almost all for the
fact NIC cannot handle MTU a little bigger than 1500 (1500 + vlan
tagging).
I don´t wish reducing MTU.
