We recently bought one:
ix0@pci0:34:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0xa02c8086 chip=0x151c8086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82599EB 10 Gigabit TN Network Connection'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
ix1@pci0:34:0:1: class=0x020000 card=0xa02c8086 chip=0x151c8086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82599EB 10 Gigabit TN Network Connection'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
It's currently used on 9.0 for benchmarking another box. Never had any
problems. Can someone say whether the X540 support in CURRENT is stable?
