General Question as I try to tune my 10 gig network:
I have looked over the forums and general google search, but I can't seem to find a definitive answer for adjusting the rx/tx ring buffers on my Chelsio dual 10GB sfp+ NIC
From what I found it looks like in the tunables section I would add hw.cxgbe.rxd = 4096 and hw.cxgbe.txd = 4096
However before I try this, I would like to get confirmation that this is correct.
On linux I would use ethtool "ethtool -G cxgb0 rx 4096 tx 4096", but not sure how to do this in Freenas/freebsd
Also in Freenas am I able to change the ring buffer for a specific interface (cxbg0 or cxgb1) or do I have to implement the change for both interfaces at the same time
Thank you for the help
