Has anyone run into this scenario where a BSD Box (RELENG_5_4) takes down
the whole subnet for only FreeBSD boxes. Here’s the scenario: One of my
web servers goes into a crazy state which kills all traffic on the network
for only FreeBSD boxes. Linux boxes can talk to other linux boxes, but
I've seen it happen when the ethernet device gets
a bus error and throws it into some strange
state. I've seen it mostly with on-board intel
devices (fxp), but thats what we use mostly so it
may not be part specific.

Thanks--the server has em (intel gigabit) nics. Have you seen this on any
specific version of FreeBSD and *hopefully* not on others (e.g. RELENG_6_0)?

I wouldn't think that a bus error would have
anything to do with the version of the OS. If the
hardware gets hosed, its likely to do almost
anything.
