Hello,
        If somebody has done this could you contact me?  I am trying to
assess its feasability.
        We want to use one FreeBSD system with three NIC's in it running
at 100 MB/s (all three to a different switch).  The machine will need to
router between the three interfaces (it will server as a gateway/router),
filter
packets ala a firewall, and all www/ftp/SSL traffic will need to be
process by our Squid/SmartFilter system, i.e. block that traffic unless
its from itself.
	Also have you had performance problems?  Three 100 MB/s NIC's
running at full speed will probably kill the PCI bus...

Thanks for your help.

Chad
