So, here's the issue I'm having. Brand new TrueNAS Core install. NIC jacks straight into an Edgerouter X. No Jails running(some setup but turned off). Network tanks from what I can only assume is a broadcast storm. Remove ether jack and things return to normal after a few minutes. Now, I've read that it could be trying to bridge the two interfaces on the same switch which can cause this, but the suggested root case of a bad jail doesn't fit. It still happens no matter what is running.

Honestly, I'm at a bit of a loss as where to look next.

Never connect two interfaces to the same LAN. Simple. If you need redundant connectivity you must use LACP.
