No, that won't work. This is the NIC we have traffic over:

hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82574L Gigabit Network Connection'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
So to be exact, I

Is it possible to disable the probe of the NIC using hists to the PCI bus

The format is:

Thanks for the correction but getting the hint to work didn't help at all.
That removed both interfaces and thus all network connectivity. And it
still didn't work with the IPMI as the remote console still disappeared
when the probing started. The serial port worked up until beasty.

Well, I already tested this in rc.conf:
ifconfig_em0=down
and it didn't help.
There is an new IPMI 2.66 vs. my running 2.64 that I will test but unless
someone has any other idea, it seems like I am stuck.

You may consider updating BIOS as well if needed:

No, that does not work. On a different host, that has an dedicated IPMI
NIC, I have a dropdown with the alternatives Dedicated, Share and Failover
but on this I only have a grayed out Share, no alternatives and no choices.
So this seems to be something hardwired in the MB.
