Hi all,
I just want to share with you some tunables that fixed repetitive crashes when using zenarmor in native mode, there is a warning that say you should be using the emulated mode, but that wasn't enough of an explanation for me, queuese would run out after a few hours and force an interface restart, after a lot of AI fu I was finally given the correct value, these won't work from the web interface as those are applied once the firewall has started which is already late, this works with i350-t4 cards :
cat /boot/loader.conf.local
dev.igb.0.iflib.override_ntxds="4096"
dev.igb.1.iflib.override_ntxds="4096"
dev.igb.2.iflib.override_ntxds="4096"
dev.igb.3.iflib.override_ntxds="4096"
dev.igb.0.iflib.override_nrxds="4096"
dev.igb.1.iflib.override_nrxds="4096"
dev.igb.2.iflib.override_nrxds="4096"
dev.igb.3.iflib.override_nrxds="4096"
dmes confirms the application of the new values :

[47] igb1: link state changed to UP
as soon as I applied this, my issues were gone.
