PRO/1000MT (PWLA8390MT) Open BSD-3.3>
>Severity: <non-critical>

        
        System      : OpenBSD 3.3
        Architecture: OpenBSD.i386
        Machine     : i386

>Description:
computer with 3 network cards one 3-com and two Intel PRO/1000MT (PWLA8390MT). My problem is that i cant get the intel cards to work against our gigabit switches. I have tried against two different types of gigabit switches, 3-com 3c16477 baseline gigabit switch and one HP procurve switch 2724 j4897.
Accordingly to ifconfig the intel adapter is up. but i can´t for example ping to another machine. If i move cable connectet to intel card, to a 100 Mb 3-com switch it comms up with 100 Mb tx full-dublex and it works to ping to another machine.
If i have bridge enabled with spanning-tree between the two intel cards and try tcpdump -i em0 i se spanning-tree bridge annonsement on the intel interface atached to gigabit switch but no other trafic.

I have tried this configuration to another machine to ( a never one with the same result)

One or two times then i have run tcpdump -i em0 tcpdump reports that em0 is not up but ifconfig says so. In that case i have run ifconfig em0 up and then tcpdumd doesen´t complain.

I dont know what to do, I am not a skilled bsd user so it might be myself who is the problem.
As attachement dmesg, hostname.xx and brconfig config files.

Ps on another machine(brand, processor mm) but i386 ( not managed by me ) running openbsd3.2 above configuration works...( same intel cards ) Ds

        <Description above i have it live.>
>Fix:

        < Intresting to try with Obenbsd 3.2 ??)>
