With the right switch you can do this easily. It requires a managed switch with the ability to have a "monitoring" port. You can copy traffic to/from one port to another port, or if the switch allows it, all of the traffic on an entire VLAN to a port. -- Chris Dillon - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet - Available for IA32 (Intel x86) and Alpha architectures - IA64, PowerPC, UltraSPARC, and ARM architectures under development - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
