Thanks for the tips Bernd I'll comment on each in turn. I now understand that this is new hardware although I did not at the time of my post. I have been reading the OpenBSD axe driver which apparently has included support for these devices for over a year now according to the CVS log. I am not in fact using a rack-mounted system. I do expect the device to pass traffic at about 100MBit. Forgive my ignorance, but are you saying I can run multiple vlans over the same interface? Thanks again for the help, -Dan On 12/17/06, Bernd Walter <ticso@cicely12.cicely.de> wrote: > > On Sun, Dec 17, 2006 at 03:42:59PM -0500, Dan Frohlich wrote: > > Here is a link to the existing defect usb/106621 btw. > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=usb/106621 > > And as it said: DLink sold diffenrent hardware under the same name. > This is in fact a new device requiring new driver and new documentation. > All in all - I really don't know what you expect from USB ethernet > devices, but since you are using a rack mounted system, I'll doubt that > even a working device will fir your requirements. > You'd better use the existing LAN port and attach it to a VLAN (802.1q) > capable switch to get isolated networks. > > -- > B.Walter http://www.bwct.de http://www.fizon.de > bernd@bwct.de info@bwct.de support@fizon.de >
