how do you guys cope with the issue of a regular pc only having 3-6 pci slots.
i find myself needing more and more interfaces and would prefer not to have to set 2-3 boxes next to eatchother since rack space is an issue (cost) what are the best ways to get many interfaces in a as standard as possible box, while keeping performance up. i'v heard of 2 and 4 port pci cards. but they are hardly commonplace and makes spareparts an issue. i'v heard of motherboards with several pci busses ??? how will this performe? vlan on gigabit can make for several 100 mbit interfaces, but i'd rather keep vlan out of the routers if i can help it. im mostly using bering and bering-uclibc -- Ronny Aasen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
