This board ships with a 82563EB network controller, which is AFAIK not
supported under FreeBSD yet. I haven't tested it, so maybe I'm wrong?

Latest intel drivers vresion 6.2.9 says:

typedef enum {
    em_undefined = 0,
    em_82542_rev2_0,
    em_82542_rev2_1,
    em_82543,
    em_82544,
    em_82540,
    em_82545,
    em_82545_rev_3,
    em_82546,
    em_82546_rev_3,
    em_82541,
    em_82541_rev_2,
    em_82547,
    em_82547_rev_2,
    em_82571,
    em_82572,
    em_82573,
    em_80003es2lan,
    em_ich8lan,
    em_num_macs
} em_mac_type;
