I'm going to be building a two-segment 10/100 ethernet network. The
basic setup will look like this:
INTERNET
|||
ROUTER-------------
|| ||
SEGMENT 1 SEGMENT 2
Segment 1 will be composed of desktop machines with 100Mbps ethernet
interfaces. Segment 2 will have server machines (running FreeBSD, of
course) which mostly run 100Mbps ethernet interfaces as well.
Can anyone recommend a router (preferably brand name like Cisco, I have
a p166 under my desk running as a router under openBSD and it looks like
it is about to break apart. I would like something that I can rely on
for the years to come)? It should be able to do NAT and firewalling, and
I don't need any exotic options. Also, I need a good 16 port switch for
the servers (it should have a gigabyte uplink, because I need the max
amount of bandwidth between both segments). Has anyone had any good
experiences with either?
