It's impossible to ping out or to be pinged by another computer on the LAN. The problem doesn't occured (tested) with another switch or network card. Putting the interface down & up or de-activating the firewall (pf with altq) doesn't solve the problem. The problem also occurs on 4.10 release, but tested long time ago. The server is a dual athlon-mp with smp enabled, and a tyan S2466 motherboard. I think it's a combination of hardware and driver problem, but I'm not a kernel hacker, but I can test patches if any available. >How-To-Repeat: Run a computer with a em card (1000XT or 1000MT for sure) during approximatively 30+ days (with an athlon mp mobo maybe?) >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-i386 Responsible-Changed-By: linimon Responsible-Changed-When: Sun Aug 27 15:31:18 UTC 2006 Responsible-Changed-Why: This sounds as though this may be hardware-specific (motherboard is being run in i386 mode) http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=102562 From: "Michel Gravey" To: , Cc: Subject: Re: i386/102562: [em] no traffic pass through a em card after approx. a month of activity Date: Sat, 2 Sep 2006 10:25:44 +0200 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0001_01C6CE7A.27EB93C0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit If it helps, an error message appearing on the console when the problem occurs : em0 : watchdog timeout The motherboard is a regular i386 motherboard, not amd64, with the nic card in a pci64/66mhz slot.

If it helps, an error message appearing on the console when the problem occurs : em0 : watchdog = timeout

 

The motherboard is a regular i386 motherboard, = not amd64, with the nic card in a pci64/66mhz slot.
