It's supported by the nfe(4) driver, which has already been committed to 
7-CURRENT.
For 6-STABLE (and 6.2-RELEASE, previous releases did not even bootstrap 
on that chipset), please follow the discussions regarding nve/nfe at:

     http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=108861
and

Hope this helps
