I used the i350 quad-port 1G and the x520 for 10G Fiber. I recently bought a Dell R420 which had BCM 5720 as the LOM. The output of pciconf was the following: bge0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x04f81028 chip=0x165f14e4 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' device = 'NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe' class = network subclass = ethernet On 9.1-PRERELEASE as of Jul 23, it was recognized but did not work properly first (the link-status went back and forth between up and down). However, after setting dev.bge.0.msi=0 it worked. I am not sure of whether it had decent communication speed or not, but I saw it worked with 50MB/s or so at least. IPMI over LAN did not work even if hw.bge.allow_asf was set to 1. -- Hiroki ----Security_Multipart(Wed_Jul_25_10_46_32_2012_738)-- Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAlAPT/gACgkQTyzT2CeTzy39oACeJTNUFJDgiqDPOPcE6YoLXDCn YKwAoKrV6R+y4+QUS7PeLPD2F5NfP1Mt =Usnt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ----Security_Multipart(Wed_Jul_25_10_46_32_2012_738)----
