Hi, I'm using a Digi SYNC/570i-PCI 2 port adapter on a system running FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE as one end of a point-to-point link. If I change between ports on the adapter, I need to reboot the FreeBSD box to get everything working. Here is the sequence of events that leads to this scenario : 1.) ifconfig ar0 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.252 link2 2.) ping 10.0.0.2 - OK 3.) ifconfig ar0 down 4.) ifconfig ar0 delete 5.) swap cable to ar1 6.) ifconfig ar1 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.252 link2 7.) ping 10.0.0.2 - not OK, reboot required. I've also noticed a lot of 'ar1: transmit failed, ST0 0, ST1 50, ST3 f, DSR3 3.' after step 6 above. After a reboot ar1 is working but the same happens when I try to switch to ar0. I have also verified that the same condition occurs when using netgraph. Any ideas on how I can go about trying to fix this would be greatly appreciated. regards, jacques
