On a server I have 2 interfaces configured in a lagg. It seemed to be
running stable until now (about a week), both interfaces repeatable go
down after a watchdog timeout.

Output from /var/log/messages

it seems to occur when the interface are loaded. On the same server I
also have a PCI card, the same issue occurs here. em0 and em1 are both
onboard 80003ES2LAN. the PCI card is 82571EB.

I've found different threads, but I couldn't manage to find  a fix for this.

What else can be wrong?
