Ethernet problems

[Dan Frohlich]

Thanks for the tips Bernd I'll comment on each in turn.

I now understand that this is new hardware although I did not at the time of
my post. I have been reading the OpenBSD axe driver which apparently has
included support for these devices for over a year now according to the CVS
log.

I am not in fact using a rack-mounted system.

I do expect the device to pass traffic at about 100MBit.

Forgive my ignorance, but are you saying I can run multiple vlans over the
same interface?

Thanks again for the help,
 -Dan
