What could be the reason for the NIC sfui> working in half-duplex mode? Well, in short it looks like mbufs in the switch are getting filled too fast, what results in random packet drops. Another thing that can help is, perhaps, `flow-control' feature on the switch. But it is more complicated, and so, from technical POV is less preferrable. -- Best regards, ; Nickolay A.
