| Greetings,
| 
| are there any decent quad-port network cards for FreeBSD?
| 
| ie I have a 1U, which needs four (4) extra interfaces/NIC's
| to act as a gateway/fw. (6 nics needed in total)
| 
| So I was curious about such devices
| (the 1U already has dual-NIC onboard)
| 
| The FreeBSD Hardware list includes
| the ANA-62044 64-bit quad port 10/100baseTX adapter
| are there any others known/tested/supported/widely-available?
| 
| Will ipfw/bridging support work with this configuration if I can
| find a quad-network card ? sorry if this is in the archives but
| if you've done this before, please let me know, TIA!

I'm very happy with my intel quad eepro100 (fxp) and pro1000 (em), but I
don't think the 100M are made any more, you'll have to take the 1000 :)
