Hi,
Intel introduced (obviously) a new series of 10/100Mbps NICs w/
management & security features:
+ "Intel PRO/100 S Server Adaptor"
(PILA8470C3)
+ "Intel PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adaptor"
(PILA8472)
+ "Intel PRO/100 S Desktop Adaptor"
(PILA8460C3)
These seem to replace the older "Intel Management Adaptors"
+ "Intel PRO/100 S Management Adaptor"
(PILA8464B, PILA8464BUS)
+ "Intel PRO/100+ Management Adaptor"
(PILA8460B)
Are these newer NICs compatible with the supported "Intel PRO/100+
Management Adaptor", and therefore run on FreeBSD?
The data sheets of these NICs claim to support "Linux 2.2.5 or Later"
and use all the same Linux Driver [e100-1.2.1.tar.gz; e100.[hc]].
So what is about the FreeBSD fxp driver? Any hints, experiences?
I am especially interested in using "Intel PRO/100+ Dual Port Server
Adaptor" for a FreeBSD router/firewall configuration.
Thanks in advance,
Volker Paulsen
