Quad Ethernet PCI Card ZNYX ZX346Q is supported

2009-01-27 Thread Oliver Adler
Hello,
because I'm just building a firewall based on FreeBSD 7.1 I
was looking around for a quad port NIC. I got a ZNYX ZX346Q
and tested it. It seems to work (I did not yet stress
testing). The only problem with the card is, that it doesn't
support media autoselect. The media has to be specified with
the ifconfig media option. I got the clue for this from
http://www.znyx.com/support/drivers/ZX346Q_drivers.htm

If there is some more testing necessary to add this card to
the list of supported hardware, please give me a note.

Thank you for providing FreeBSD.

Oliver

If you mean is there a driver for the card?, try de(4).
If you mean will someone please media auto-select? ... I'm
confused.  If the hardware doesn't support it (and my ZX345s didn't)
how can the driver?

is it Digital DecChip based?
i have similar one (not znyx) ahd have similar problem but not the same.

looks like PHY is not supported, so it works in default mode.
i can set media manually but it doesn't work
i can leave automatic detection, and it works but with not all endpoints.

with one - i ended adding cheap 5-port switch in between.
