I have a spare machine Sun Fire X2100 M2 with 5715C:
bge0@pci0:6:4:0: class=0x020000 card=0x534c108e chip=0x167814e4
rev=0xa3 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'BCM5715C 10/100/100 PCIe Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
bge1@pci0:6:4:1: class=0x020000 card=0x534c108e chip=0x167814e4
rev=0xa3 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'BCM5715C 10/100/100 PCIe Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
I can provide you full access to this machine (if you want) or let me
know, what version I should check. Older versions (6.x - 8.3) are
working fine with hw.bge.allow_asf="1" in loader.conf. I didn't test
newer releases on these old machines.
