It uses Intel NICs. ""Craig Johnson"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... | In my experience, as long as you use identical hardware (NIC's, motherboard) | and use the PIX flash card, I see no reason why it wouldn't work just fine. | The ones I've worked with was a Pentium Pro mobo (Intel VS440FX) and a | Pentium II mobo (Intel AL440LX).

I think they use either Intel Etherexpress 100 NIC's or | 3Com 3c905B Nic's, although I'm pretty sure it's the former. | | Craig Johnson | -----Original Message----- | From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of | Chris Larson | Sent: Friday, September 01, 2000 6:58 AM | To: William E Gragido; Cisco Cisco; [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Subject: Re: PIX | | | This is an interesting question.
