Hi Mikhail,

Zitat von "Mikhail E. Zakharov" <zakharov@ipb.redline.ru>:
> I have two 3com ethernet cards at my FreeBSD server. How to set up them, to
> work together at the same subnet with IP 192.168.1.1 (xl0) and IP
> 192.168.1.2(xl1).
I donīt know why you would want to do that (maybe bandwidth issues?) but
it *might* work like this:

ifconfig xl0 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig xl1 inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.255

I did not try this though ...

Note that this should not do any loadbalancing (I think). If you need
the additional bandwidth you might want to buy a dual ethernet
card and use itīs channel bundling feature. Some dual-nics offer this.
