I am unable to add 2 Intel 10 gig nics to my Freebsd 9.1 at 9000 MTU. I tri= ed to add them last night and was only able to set only a max of 4000 MTU. = I get an error telling me kernel: ix1: Could not setup receive structures = and the interface will not pass traffic. I found these changes on the Intel readme but this did solve my issue. kern.ipc.nmbclusters=3D262144 kern.ipc.nmbjumbop=3D262144 There seems to be some calculation that needs to be done with multiple CPUs= . I am running 12 cpus what tweak do I need to make so I can run my MTUs at= 9000 on my 1 NIC with no vlans and 1 NIC with 3 vlans on it.=20 Wayne =
