Sorry for distracting with such a question as to recommendations as to
network cards, but since I'm planning on upgrading a freebsd firewall
(currently running 5.4-STABLE), I'll check with those who know the best!
At the moment I have a firewall/router based on three fxp intel nics (a

Good day,
I've built up a freebsd router (no problems there) using 5.4-STABLE built
after a cvsup 3 days ago.
The router has three network cards (all fxp), and it routes mainly between
a variety of subnets (using vlans) on fxp1, to a seperate subnet on fxp0.
fxp2 has a private address (192.168.0.
e the two nics bridged)? Maybe using ipfw to forward
the traffic by MAC address? I'm going to sleep on it, anybody with advice
would receive my full gratitude!
