>Description:
When kldload'ing the kernel modules for if_ixgb or ixgbe, I noticed that it doesn't properly change the interface state from inactive to active state (and in fact it seems to think the link is down as opposed to up). If I manually ifconfig up the interface, then it starts passing traffic.

>How-To-Repeat:
1. Boot the 9.1-RC2 livecd.
2. Boot into Live CD mode.
3. kldload if_ixgb.
4. ifconfig will show that the interfaces are not active.
