Whilst you need an IP address for a jail, you don't need to dedicate an interface to a jail. Typically, you would create a number of aliases on one interface and assign them to jails. If you have lots of public addresses then you could use aliases on your public NIC. Alternatively, you can create aliases on lo0 and use firewall software (ipfw, IPfilter or pf) to redirect packets to the appropriate alias. If you really need distinct physical interfaces, you could use an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN trunk into your FreeBSD box and break it out into as many vlan interfaces as you want. -- Peter Jeremy
