No; but the devices in question have 10Mb/s NIC chips. That's all that's needed for a single-port RS-232 terminal server, or a remote weather station. Just have to filter multicast and rate limit broadcasts. The backbone is gigabit, and the switches all have either 10/100/1000 or 10/100 ports. No, that event happened two weeks ago, thanks to a misbehaving megapixel IP camera. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
