      I have 2 of these cards to install but they are not being detected I'm assuming I need to download new drivers. Can someone post the commands to process in the command line to do this? I'm not finding specific packages for that. These are Dell branded Dell Quad Port 10GbE RJ-45 QLogic FastLinq PCIe CNA Network Adapter High 33M0K

        Should be supported by the qlnxe(4) driver. That's already included as a kernel module in 2.7.1 and 23.09 you just need to load it.
        So first try running: kldload if_qlnxe
        If the logs show the NIC is now detected make that load at boot each time by running: echo 'load if_qlnxe="YES"' >> /boot/loader.conf.local

          @stephenw10 That didn't work. It get's locked up on reset. I've tried it 3 times now and it locks out the remote and the shell both and has to be hard reset.

            Which part didn't work? Loading the module after boot? Or at boot in loader.conf.local?

              @stephenw10 Ran kldload if_qlnxe at the shell. It scrolls through a bunch of commands and ultimately ends at a blank cursor and is locked up.

              last line says "db:0:kdb.enter.default> reset

              Blank cursor after this and server is hard locked and has to be powered off and back on.

                Ah, not good. Did you get a crash report after you rebooted?

                        That definitely a problem withthe driver/NIC then.

                        There is a known bug with that driver but what you're hitting is not that: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13028

                        Are you able to test this in FreeBSD 14?

                          @stephenw10 I can drop a quick image and give it a whirl.Another thought I had was putting 2019 on the box. Which works fine then doing the firewall as a VM. Thoughts on that method? Currently I was hoping to do bare metal but if that's causing some issues I can pop 2019 on it which I know works as I did that as a test already to make sure the hardware was functional.

                            2019? Some hypervisor?

                              @stephenw10 Sorry. Yes. HYper-V I have a license for it that I could ultimately use.

                                Yup, you could certainly do that. Though I would personally choose any other hypervisor.

                                But I would test FreeBSD 14 on it bare metal if you can. If it throws the same panic there we can open an upstream bug for it.
