Just an FYI mellanox is not supported for the default netmap profile. I was able to install and enable but lost connectivity and had to ssh in and manually remove zenarmor from the terminal as it was crashing everything.  Is this expected? Thank you!

Edit: I see this - https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=17363.180 where mlx devices are being tested...did that ever work?

Hi,

Hi,
Netmap might not be compatible with mellanox driver. The netmap team tried it to support an earlier kernel and some tests were successful. But in the current FreeBSD release it seems it is not compatible.

Ok thank you. Good thing my renewal coincided with the hardware upgrade 🤣 I'll keep an eye out for changes though as I did enjoy using it.
