According to your c= ompatibility list at https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.2R/hardware.html#e= thernet, there are five (5) different Intel PRO/1000 MT NIC's listed. Howev= er, the 2 we are looking for are not on the list. Since the list is more th= an a year old, I'm wondering if there has been any additional testing to ve= rify compatibility of these NIC's or if you can tell me if FreeBSD will sup= port the use of these NIC's. I've included the two (2) we are using listed = below. The reason for my question is that we are using a 3rd party software produc= t that is using FreeBSD as its initial boot OS. Unfortunately, the vendor c= an't answer my question regarding compatibility.
