Good morning,

I installed FreeBSD (9.1 i386) and OpenBSD (5.2 i386), and I found ping
result from directly attached Cisco switch to FreeBSD boxes were
intermittent. I test to ping to few other FreeBSD boxes, and still produce
the same result like below, regardless either using em or bce, or changing
the connected interface at Cisco switch that used by OpenBSD box. This is
default installation of FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

By the way, do syslog server (under FreeBSD or OpenBSD has limitation to
receive more than 3000 messages per second?

>From Cisco switch to FreeBSD box:

#ping 10.100.3.73 repeat 1000

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 1000, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.100.3.73, timeout is 2 seconds:
