I have a 3Com 3c509b network interface card in it. Now i want to make my machine a router, for which i need another NIC besides the existing one. My query is that would there be a problem if i try to use two identical n/w interface cards to configure my m/c as a router. Is it possible or allowed to do so? If yes, what IRQ numbers and addresses do these cards use ? Somebody please help me in this regard. Thank you.
