I read the FreeBSD FAQ and documentation that talks about a 4 port ethernet
card with a DEC chip set, but I can't find anyone that will sell them, or
match their model numbers with the ones on the support list.
I know adaptec has bought cogent and has a four port card that will do
10/100 Adaptec ANA-6944A/TX and a ANA-6922A/TX.
I know the cards are capable of full duplex 100Mb, and I will never be able
to get a box to max out all 4 ports full duplex, but it doesn't have to.
My questions:
Can I use these cards? any comments?
Any recommendations, horror stories, suggestions
Thanks alot.
Please cc me via e-mail.
