Thanks for replying Andrey.

On 10-Stable, the interface is re1. The output of 'ifconfig re1 | grep 
options' is:
options=8209b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
     nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

On 11-Stable (the one with the problems), it's igb1 and the output of 
'ifconfig igb1 | grep options' is:
options=6403bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,VLAN_HWTSO,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
     nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

Thanks again for your help,
     Graham
