In regards to this ticket: http://support.freenas.org/ticket/635
For the past several days i've been fighting a problem with FreeNas 8.2 Beta4 in which the Network interfaces would quit responding from outside the machine. The fix mentioned in the above ticket corrected the problem I was having; however, finding the information took a very long time. It seems to me that perhaps these settings should be a default setting, or noted somewhere in the installation instructions so that someone new to freeNAS who experiences this issue can figure out how to fix it relatively quickly.
login as root and type enter the following commands:
mount -uw /
echo kern.ipc.nmbclusters=\"131072\" >> /boot/loader.conf
echo hw.igb.num_queues=\"4\" >> /boot/loader.conf
sync ; reboot
