Yes, that's exactly waht i'm looking for
i'd just like some feedback about "stronger" configurations, say several
100 Mbps NICs or even Gbps, hundreds of routes or more, simple or complex
filters, aso...
thanks

Si nous avons chacun un objet et que nous les echangeons, 
   nous avons encore chacun un objet.
Si nous avons chacun une idee et que nous les echangeons,
   nous avons alors chacun deux idees.
