Hi,
I don't know if it's possible to make a hub with multiples NICs using
Linux, I would say it isn't, cause a hub it's a physical signal repeater
and re-generator...
In the case of an ethernet switch, it's possible using "bridge-utils"
package. You need multiple NICs (you can also bridge virtual interfaces
like Xen, but I don't think that's what you're looking for). Once you've
installed the package, you need to use the command "brctl" to create and
configure the bridge.
Greetings!

Does anyone know of documentation for a Linux hub or a Linux

a gateway interface transmitting packets for multiple addresses
and subordinate interfaces transmitting packets for one or all
addresses except for the address of the machine itself.
Thanks, ... Peter E.
