Intel igb optimizations (EEE)
«

I'm migrating my install from pfSense to OPNsense and I'm going to run OPNSense on a Qotom Q355G4 machine.
The Qotom has a 4 port Intel igb.
On pfSense it was advisable to add the following to the (System) Tunables:
dev.igb.0.eee_disabled=1
dev.igb.1.eee_disabled=1
dev.igb.2.eee_disabled=1
dev.igb.3.eee_disabled=1
This disabled Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) for the 4 ports.
Is this also needed for OPNsense?
Any Tunables I need to know of before switching completely?

Hello I know it's a little late, but this is what I use on a Proxmox VM with intel cards passed through.
dev.igb.0.eee_control Disable Energy Efficient Ethernet runtime 0
dev.igb.0.fc Flow Control runtime 0
dev.igb.1.eee_control Disable Energy Efficient Ethernet runtime 0
dev.igb.1.fc Flow Control runtime 0
I have also used this on a bare metal install.
On Proxmox:
igb.0 is WAN
igb.1 is parent for VLAN's
Also have em0 on LAN in Proxmox ,but don't do anything for it.
Hope this helps.
