Hi all,
this post is about my backup storage listed in my signature. I just moved my installation from 2 USB thumb sticks to some cheap 240GB SSD's. All I did was saving the config from the original installation, fresh install the latest freenas version on the SSD's and re-uploading the config. After that somehow I managed to cause weired networking issues with my Intel X520-DA2 network adapter.
Somehow I managed to delete the ix1 interface, under Network -> Interfaces, only the ix0 interface is listed now. When I now restart my system I always have to swap my SFP+ module from one port to the other to make the networking working through the remaining ix0 interface (seems like the mapping of ix0 is toggeling between the two phyisical ports).
When running pciconf -lv I get the following output related to the NIC:
What can I do to re-add the missing network port? Maybe re-adding the interface properly solves the other issue with the "swapping" of the port mapping...
