Hey, Thank for the answer. I'have the same matter with bnx2x on rhel6.1 ...
In the H3C documentation there is a subject about vlan (thank to Leland) : "The default VLAN IDs of the Trunk ports on the local and peer devices must be the same. Otherwise, packets cannot be transmitted properly." What did you think about that ? >From your point of view what will be the best manner to have the thing works ? I've tested the last driver be2net from Emulex without success ... Eventually I can use another linux distribution ?
