#Suppose i want to create 30...50 fully separated physical subnets

whatever...)
#rules both for inter-subnets communication and for communication with the

#What is the best (hardware) solution for this? Maybe a Cisco router, with

#something else?... (i prefer Cisco solutions, for non-technical reasons,
but

#Any suggestions?
You can have 40 seperated networks on a Sidewinder
(www.securecomputing.com). The software can handle up to ten network cards
with four ports per card. You would need to do some interesting acls but
it is very possible. I don't have a clue what the performance would be and
doing this with any real firewall is going to be a support nightmare.
