You could use a USB ethernet dongle with an old laptop. Only your LAN
side would need to be GigE.
Sounds like you might need another shelf. ;)
I put a vent in the top of my closet (where all networking and servers
are) to let the heat out into the room. Works well even w/out a fan, so
long as the room ceiling is higher than the closet ceiling.

Eric,
I agree with all that you wrote. However,
* I don't have a spare P3
* I have some old laptops, but no dual nic ones
* I don't have space in my cable shelf to anything bigger than my
current BEFSX41 firewall/router
* The shelf is up high in a rather warm room and the 2 switches, and it
gets a little toasty in there in the summer.
A real computer is the best technical solution, but not feasible in my
set up.
Thanks for the idea!
Mark
