To: freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sun, 17 May 1998 08:25:39 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL31 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I work for a company that provides internet services, and it appears we might get several (at least a few) clients at one site in a large building. They all need to be on separate networks, and the current thinking is to use a FreeBSD unit as a router. At one time I recall there was a company making multi-port ethernet cards - Znyx. The only Zynx I can find on the net is a health-care firm. The only other pointer I've found to multi-port ethernet cards is a company called Cogent - but their address gives a no DNS response. Are there other ways to do this. I also found the etinc site but this appears to be a multiple T1 device. Am I correct in assuming that those expect CSU/DSU's on the end of each port?
