Some of them we installed FreeBSD 6.2 and 6.3. But we found all of them second lan port also have problem. The real case is. we installed a apache server in 1950 and mysql server in 2950. and both of them expect to use the second lan port to communication. but we got a super bad result from this setting. After that we test all FreeBSD servers at a command 'scp somefile.tmp username@secondLanIP'. All FreeBSD servers got same bad behavior. So we think that is the Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T 0.9.6 problem on second lan port. The anohter point is we are working fine with freebsd if only if we use the first lan port. >How-To-Repeat: ALL FreeBSD Server on Dell 1950 and 2950 have same problem on Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T 0.9.6 driver >Fix: Don't know. because Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T 0.9.6 driver seems already newest. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: From: Volker To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, payne@gameone.com Cc: Subject: Re: i386/120725: [bce] On board second lan port 'bce1' with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T 0.9.6 driver in Dell 1950 and 2950 behave super slow Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2008 14:21:09 +0100 Payne, please provide output of: dmesg vmstat -ia ifconfig If running a firewall on these devices, please check if you see a performance gain when disabling it. I'm wondering if you can run netperf on the interfaces?
