What would be the best way to connect a bunch of 460.8 kb/s async serial ports
to a FreeBSD based login server?

An "Enhanced" serial port will provide the peripheral interface hardware, but
this imposes a limit of 4 ports per machine (2 E2S1P cards, 4 interrupts).

What I want is an intelligent controller that will do 32 ports per interrupt at
this speed, like an enhanced version of the Specialix XIO.

Or where else should I be looking? The idea is to offer ISDN and ordinary modem
service on the same bunch of dialup lines.
