Hi Christoffer,
We did not encounter the problem you mentioned on all our x345 servers.
All our servers are connected using the first nic - em0. No problem with
syslogd timeout etc during boot up.
We did encounter problem though, trying to unplumb em1 by ifconfig em1
destroy.
Checking in progress.
FYI
Regards,

Christoffer,
I have a similar problem with another driver. I am assuming that you have
the
em driver compiled in your Kernel (I think its in GENERIC in 4.8). Here is
what I did to combat the similar problem. Take the ifconfig_em(x) and
defaultrouter out of the rc.conf. Make a simple if_up.sh script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d to bring up your interfaces and bring up your default
route. I run a sleep command in mine for 5 seconds to give other services
time
to load before I bring up the interfaces. Syslog should come up regardless
of
network services, unless you are doing remote syslog. Either way, the above
worked for me.
If that doesn't work, check to make sure you have the em driver compiled in
your Kernel. Sounds like its trying to kldload the em driver, therefore
making
your services not start in the process (no network activity). If it is
loading
the module at boot up, then make the above script, but load the module at
the
top. Its all the same.
Just an idea. Not saying it the right thing to do, but its one that worked
for
me.
