kern/177139: [igb] igb drops ethernet ports 2 and 3

Fri Mar 22 16:27:23 UTC 2013

One more question; Are these Dell i350 daughter cards or discrete NICs?

Thanks,

Jeff

I'll try to arrange this but so far igb2/3 have been fine when going through the switch so tempted to take this as a solution.
We loose some switch ports but that is no great loss.  Going to put some traffic through them over the weekend and see if they are still good on Monday.

What Jack means is to swap ports 0/1 with ports 2/3, so that 0/1 are B2B with the other i350 and ports 2/3 are connected to the switch. Do this on both sides. The reason for this is because there is a bridge between ports 0/1 and 2/3, so it is possible that the bridge is causing problems when connected B2B.
