Dear colleagues, experimenting with new amd64-based router we found strange re(4) behaviour when working in autoselect media mode: whenever promisc mode turned on, renegotiating occurs, leading to 3 to 45 (depending on STP settings on the switch) network unavailability. Moreover, some other re(4) setting changes seem to disturb link state unneededly (such as ifconfig re0 -vlanhwtag) The most annoying fact is that we non-autonegotiating mode with our re and D-Link gigabit switches: fixing media at 1000BaseTX leads to link down regardless of master/slave settings on both sides; on re side it is even undocumented. Any clues? Thanks in advance.
