I feared it was just a lump of iron, but then found out about pfSense. I've installed the embedded i386 version of pfSense 2.03. It works ok with the 10/100MB ports that are built in (4 fxp devices), but I can't get the four 1000-BASE-SX ports (Intel Pro/1000, em devices) on the option cards to work at all. pfSense insists that I can choose from 10-base-T, 100-base-TX or 1000-base-T. If I try to set the nics to 1000basesx using ifconfig, I get a  ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA (media): Device not configured error message, even if I specify full-duplex explicitly. Any ideas on how to fix this?</p>
<p dir="auto">Cheers,</p>

FreeBSD doesn't include such knowledge of Nokia boxes.</p>
<p dir="auto">There are FreeBSD loader variables that can be specified to override interrupt specifications apparently provided by the BIOS but without a fair bit of detailed knowledge of the specific hardware design you could spend many hours trying to guess the correct values.</p>
<p dir="auto">If you want to tinker for a while to see what you can make work, by all means do so. But if you value your time and need to get something working quickly I suggest the Nokia box is not for you.</p>

<p dir="auto">I couldn't find any post regarding pfSense 2.1 doing a final release. Could you please point me to the right post. Thanks!</p>

Since 2.1-RELEASE is right now in the build and final test process, if you wait 24 to 48 hours you might even have a final 2.1-RELEASE image available to try. (for hardware compatibility, 2.1-RCn and 2.1-RELEASE will be the same)</p>
