Ok, this is great. In saying that do you have any idea what I should look at?
Again same tests on any of my servers running different nics work fine connected to the same switch. I have the latest nic firmware from ibm... I guess it could be something else ibm specific? These are the two cards I am having issues with. Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5703X I probably should have noted that seeing the tg3 supports a wide range of nics .. Could you test on a machine using one of these cards or did you already? thanks for the response.
