Hi Jim,

tnx for your feedback.

tried out:
- systemtunables via webgui


   - Set the *Tunable* field to *kern.ipc.nmbclusters*
   - Set the *Value* field to 1000000 or the desired number.

- reboot ->> alll works well
- reboot / added 2 nics (sum 8)
*- same problems*


as well as additionally generating file:

240870   4 -rw-r--r--   1 root  wheel    86B Nov  5 21:29 loader.conf
240869   4 -rw-r--r--   1 root  wheel    31B Nov  5 21:18 loader.conf.local

kern.ipc.nmbclusters="1000000"

- reboot
- all fine with 6 nics
- reboot and adding 2 NICs = 8 in sum

*again in both cases same behaviour that machine is not working well :-(*

remark:
as written v2.3.4 works well WITHOUT tuned anything

so seems to have an dependency with freebsd 11.1 kernel ?
