Old PCI 10/100 NICs are more than adequate for backup WAN purposes (xDSL > , cable, etc.) and some of the SFF boxes have one pci-e plus one pci slot and > that’s it. My firewall has most of them. It has 2 sk(4), 2 nfe(4), fxp(4), and xl(4), with xl and fxp connected to my ISP and the others on my internal network. My testbed has sk(4), nfe(4), and dc(4), connected to my DMZ, for ipfilter testing. My main build machine and my current laptop have sk(4), nfe(4), bge(4), while my i386 testbed (an old laptop) has rl(4). I have a spare motherboard (in case something breaks, while I purchase a replacement) with nv(4). All parts, including CPUs, are interchangeable. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert FreeBSD UNIX: Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few.
