Trying to make a Host into a gigabit hub for testing

Chris,

Now the traffic is going out all the ports, thanks.  Only one issue, is that 
it is also being echo'd back the em0 interface.  When I put this under a 
full GIGABIT load, 6 interfaces feeding back what was just sent them, will 
kill my primary em0 interface.

Is there a way to make the echo from em0 to all other interfaces only go 
one-way, rather than em0 also being part of the group and receiving 
everthing it sends back again?

Shawn
