Hello,
        I would like to know what are the things needed to convert a
machine running linux to a router. I know that the machine
1) needs atleast 2 network cards
2) Obviously the filtering has to be done using iptables / ipchains
3) do we need a monitor here ? If we don't have a monitor, how do you
do systems admin... from another machine using ssh or telnet ?

What other things do we need to convert the linux machine into a
router ? And how does it fare w.r.t hardware routers like those of
cisco and juniper, dlink etc?

Thanks in advance
Ravi
