I have been running Freenas for a couple years now and everything has been going well. Recently, I have started to utilise the Intel X540-t1 on my 10gbe network.
Currently, transfer speeds between Freenas and my desktop pc (also running an Intel X540-t1) is 300mb/s. I thought this was a little low as I have cat7 cabling so I did some research and noticed to add under options of the network card mtu 9000. When I do this, I cannot access the Freenas gui however I can ping the freenas itself. I have to reset the network adapter before I can reach the gui again.
Has any one else encountered this problem? Is there something I am doing wrong?
The freenas and desktop pc are connected via a unifi x16 network switch. I did enable jumbo frames on the switch and changed mtu on windows 10 pc to 9014 (selected from drop down box).
My freenas setup is:
Supermicro x10srl-f
Intel Xeon E5-1650 v3
DDR4 memory (128gb)
WD 8tb drives configured in Raidz2 (3vdevs of 8 drives)
