after complaint about slowness between our lan and dmz, I traced it to a firewall interface on our pfsense 1.2.3 firewall, a Dell R300 with onboard broadcom bcm5722
FreeBSD fwa.xxx.yyy 7.2-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p5 #0: Sun Dec 6 23:20:31 EST 2009 sullr...@freebsd_7.2_pfsense_1.2.3_snaps.pfsense.org:/usr/obj.pfSense/usr/pfSensesrc/src/sys/pfSense_SMP.7 i386 a bit of googling came up with this http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.current/browse_thread/thread/4b42a0fa82125473?pli=1 I bounced the interface as suggested and it didn't help, and swapped the cable, also no joy. this firewall is one of a clustered pair, the 2ndry is identical hardware and its bge0 is running fine at 1000baseT. the cisco switch they're both plugged into doesn't suggest any errors. stuff reported in dmesg... bge0: <Broadcom BCM5722 A0, ASIC rev. 0xa200> mem 0xdfdf0000-0xdfdfffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1 brgphy0: <BCM5722 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> PHY 1 on miibus0 brgphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-FDX, auto any suggestions please?
