Hi!
As long as using it (since NetBSD 1.4, at the moment with 1.4.2_ALPHA
of Feb 19th) I see incredible large numbers of Oerrs with 'ex'
ethernet devices:
# netstat -i
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Colls
ex0 1500 <Link> 00:10:5a:f2:e2:8a 759762 1 637117 55940 89541
ex1 1500 <Link> 00:10:5a:48:30:1f 1033471 0 849143 20291 4662
^^^^^
It's with _every_ 'ex' device in use in our dept. Other ethernet
devices in the same lan don't complain, anyway, like:
$ netstat -i
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Colls
epic0 1500 <Link> 00:e0:29:28:3b:25 1201418 0 1387171 0 188439
Is this a 'special' feature / bug of the `ex` driver? Did I something
wrong?
Thanks for any comments,
Markus.
