Hello Garrett, We ran the following tests on a Tyan S3992-E motherboard (http://www.tyan.com/product_board_detail.aspx?pid=517): - Installed OpenSolaris build 89. - Activated the bge driver. - Verified whether ICMP ping, ftp, HTTP and NFS work fine over the bge interface. - Verified whether VLAN works fine on the bge interface. - Verified whether no more packets were lost than for other interfaces on the same network for 300 MB/s ICMP traffic between the interface and a Linux system (ran the following command on the Linux system: for ((i=0;i<5;i++)); do ping -s 30000 -f 10.100.92.1 -c 10000 -q & done).
