I searched the forums but found nothing addressing this. If this is a repeat, I'd appreciate a redirect to the existing thread.
I won't have my hands on a 10Gb Ethernet card until after moving stuff to the new FreeNAS box and deprecating the old file server.
I'll have to use the onboard Broadcom NICs for setup and initial data transfer, but for production I'll want the full bandwidth of 10GbE (Intel X540-T1). I'm new to FreeNAS but from what I've read/seen, the primary NIC is only configurable through CLI.
What happens when you remove or disable that?
Is it possible to make it secondary to a newly installed card?
What is the preferred way of replacing/changing the primary NIC after FreeNAS is setup and running?
I'm new to BSD but have moderate LINUX CLI experience; in other words, with a road map I can do this in either the GUI or CLI. (DELL R620, E5620, 96GB RAM, 4x BCM5720 onboard)
Thank you
