After downloading and installing the Sniffer10G software from the Sniffer10G Download Page via

 
   # pkg_add #SNF_PKG_NAME
   # /usr/local/opt/snf/sbin/myri_start_stop start

the following procedure will automatically load the driver at boot time.

  1.  
     # cp /usr/local/opt/snf/sbin/myri_start_stop /usr/local/etc/rc.d/myri_start_stop
    
  2. Once the file above is in the location specified, add the following line to /etc/rc.conf to load the modules on boot:

    myri_enable="YES"
    

Important Note:

If you have configured mxge (Myri10GE driver) into your kernel, you will need to remove mxge from your kernel config file. Similarly, if you are using mxge as a module you will need to remove it (kldunload if_mxge). You should also remove ifconfig_mxgeX lines from /etc/rc.conf if you want to load the Sniffer10G driver at boot.
