I setup my freebsd yeterday w/ 1 ISA 3com 3c509 lan card, when i did an ifconfig i saw that the device name "ep0" was there w/ my assigned ip_address. No, problem there, but now i want this box to act as a gateway, so i installed a new lan card, still the same, an ISA 3com 3c509. I booted my system and i cant directly configure my 2nd nic through 

"ifconfig ep1 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0... up",
now i went to recompile my kernel and search of the nic, and saw an entry...:

    #ISA ETHERNET NICs.
    device          ep

im not sure how to configure the kernel to detect my 2nd lancard, should put..

    #ISA ETHERNET NICs.
    device          ep0
    device          ep1     at isa?  port 0x300 irq 9

... is this right? or should i just leave it to the default "device ep", and it would detect my 2 lancard... if not, then what should i put in the kernel, what else do i need to configure to make this work... 


thanx in advance!!!
