I wonder if someone can tell me how many ethernet devices can be
configured on a freebsd system.

I would like to build a router with these "new" quartet ethernet cards.

So 4 times a quartet ethernet card gives me lots of ethernet segments,
but how many segments does freebsd support ?

Which quartet board is recommended? (10 base T)

Thanx,
Jasper
