The 2 Port FE LAN adapter for the 7206 (vip based module) is not as you
might expect. It turns out
cisco will tell you NOT to use it for regular ethernet 100 Mb traffic. Seems
that board is intended for
some sort of other application and works poorly as a regular ethernet I/O.
Has bugs. I forget what
the actual reason was (from cisco) but that cards intent is not for normal
traffic.
