And what about the aliases? How many aliases can FreeBSD or a NIC handle? Noor -----Original Message----- From: Ted Mittelstaedt [mailto:tedm@toybox.placo.com] Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 12:25 PM To: Noor Dawod; freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: Max number of NIC's and aliases No to both - but consider the speed of the average PCI bus. Your not going to be able to keep a bunch of NICS in saturation on a PC, espically 100Mbt full duplex ones.
