I need an advice from folks who are expert with SPLAT.
How do you add another NIC into an existing firewall
without having to renumberring the interfaces? For
example, let say that I have 4 interfaces on the
SPLAT Enforcement Modules, eth0, eth1, eth2 and
eth3. Depending on where I insert the 5th NIC,
it could rearrange the whole thing and that the
eth0 could now be eth1 and eth1 could be eth2
and so forth.
You can't do this easily. Linux orders the cards based on the way they
are found on the busses. You might try some of the tricks on

Wether or not any of them works for SPLAT is unknown at this moment
