Broadcom NIC Problem - Installing 7.1

Hi there.

 

I'm just getting back into the FreeBSD world after a long vacation ;)

 

Just installed a shiny new Dell PowerEdge R710 server that comes with Four
embedded BroadcomR NetXtreme IIT 5709c Gigabit Ethernet NIC cards.  The
installation does not recognize the NIC cards so I installed anyways.
Server boots up as normal and everything else looks good.

 

Is there support for these NIC cards?  Do I need to do a custom kernel or
load modules?

 

Many thanks,

 

Paul
