IRQ 11 here as well :-(

Both ed1 & dc0 are sharing IRQ11, not always a good thing..,

Most MoBo's have an option in the SetUp menu (you know.., "press DEL for
SETUP", during POST), where you tell the BIOS whether or not a P'nP OS
is being installed - for FreeBSD, one usually selects "No" / "DISABLE"
to this.

Well., when putting an interface into promiscuous mode, you're then
enabling the bpf (Berkley Packet Filter) device.., which might point to
ed1 (on IRQ11) now having to contend with yet another device for IRQ
resources.., Just a guess here.

It'd be great to hear what results you get.., Hope to hear from you on
this again soon.

Howdy, thanks for the response.

Here's the dmesg:

I don't see any mention of PNP in the BIOS and I didn't specifically
enable anything in the KERNEL.  Let me know if you need more.

Now, here's the weird thing.  I reconfigured my ipnat.rules, ipf.rules
and rc.conf to switch the NICs.  I rebooted and switched the cables and
now I haven't gotten an error on the new dc0 interface (which is now the
promiscuous snort interface).  So, it might be that the ed1 interface is
conflicting with something and I only hear about it when I put it into
promiscuous mode.  I'm going to try to do that next.

Thanks,

What version of FreeBSD is this?
Can you post the dmesg output for both (or more) of the nics on the
system, please?
What is the P'nP OS BIOS option set to on this box?

The reasoning behind my request for more information rests on the
following:-

1] There is a possibility of an IRQ conflict with another adapter on the
box

2] Duff ethernet cabling

Not sure myself, come back to the list with that information, and
hopefully others more informed than I would have memories jogged :-)

I hadn't gotten any responses, but I just noticed something.  I put my
firewall's outside interface into promiscuous mode for Snort and shortly
thereafter I started getting the following errors.

Feb 14 15:00:37 elijah kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet
length 4
Feb 14 15:00:48 elijah kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet
length 3
Feb 14 15:00:52 elijah kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet
length 4
Feb 14 15:00:53 elijah kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet
length 3

Now, my question all along has been whether my ISP munged something up
and packets are being corrupted.  Might the errors that I'm seeing be
evidence of that or is it only pointing to the fact that my firewalls
ed1 interface might be screwy?

Thanks,

Shane
