Synopsis: simultaneous multiple server network failure

State-Changed-From-To: open->patched
State-Changed-By: kris
State-Changed-When: Mon Jul 14 03:34:21 PDT 2003
State-Changed-Why: 
This is likely to be caused by an fxp card's packet buffer
filling while the system is unable to process them, causing
the card to go into a loop transmitting ethernet quench
packets and flooding the ethernet segment.  See

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/fxp/if_fxp.c?rev=1.179&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup

for a description of the problem and the code committed to 5.1.
