Lo and behold, Phil Howard once said:
Anyone know where to get some multi-port (not hub/switch, but true distinct ports) NIC cards that are in the price range of N times the cost of a normal NIC card, compatible with Linux? I have a project that needs 12 to 20 ports. I've stuffed 4 NIC cards into a Linux box and it handles that OK. But I'd like to get more in there at proportional cost (I can hack the kernel if it needs any table size increases ... viva la source). For one thing I'd like to isolate all our colocation boxes into their own individual subnets.
Try Phobos - http://www.phobos.com/ They make a quad 10/100 ethernet port; it's about $50 less than the other quad NICs around, and performs quite well. I'm not sure what their Linux support is. -Dave -- work: danderse () cs utah edu me: angio () pobox com University of Utah http://www.angio.net/ Department of Computer Science
