Hello, running FreeBSD 12-STABLE and FreeBSD 11.2 (OPNsense 19.X) on PowerEdge 29= 50 server systems (BIOS/Firmware 2.3.1 as of 2013), Allied Telesis AT-2711FX/= SC PCIe 1x Nics are not recognized even by the BIOS/Firmware/hardware as ther= e is neither a "none@busXXXXX" entry popping up when examinating via pciconf() = the presence of hardware nor does FreeBSD report any recognized or not recogni= zed devices of that kind. I'm not sure whether those fibre NICs of Allied Telesis (AT-2711FX/SC) are supported antway by FreeBSD, but I though until now if FreeBSD doesn't hav= e a clue on a device, it would bring up a "none@" message in pciconf reporting hardware recognized by the firmare/base system but not the OS. Am I wrong here? I haven't tested those NICs in more modern hardware as the boxes are on a remote site, so it takes time to test, therfor, I asked here first. I need supported fibre NICs for both 100 MBit and 1GBit for FreeBSD 11 as well as 12 and if there is a suggestion, please, I'm open to it. Thanks in advance, O. Hartmann
