[Balgansuren Batsukh]

Some servers running at 1000Mbps without problem same rc.conf.

Hardware configuration is exactly same.

$ ifconfig -a
bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        options=9b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM>
        ether 00:1e:c9:3d:0b:49
        inet 122.254.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 122.254.x.x
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
