I'm certain I read up on this somewhere before...

When you install a FreeBSD system (6.1 here), the devices don't always configure "in order". For example, I have a few Dell PowerEdge systems, upon which 2 are FreeBSD....

The devices would normally appear "in order" (similar to Linux) where they are physically attached... first, em0 and em1 would be the motherboard NICs, then any PCI cards.

So, I look at them physically, expecting to hook em1 into a separate network, but em1 is actually another port.

BOTH systems are different, too.

That's the best way I can think of to describe it.

Anyone know how to solve this problem in FreeBSD-6.x.


Thanks.
