Sorry for this off topic question. Looking at the archive, SK (Henning
love them! (;>) is what look likes the best Ethernet cards to use, a few
months ago anyway. The network cards are changing so quickly that what
was true 6 months ago, may well not be today.
For quad, can someone confirmed, deny or offer alternative known to work
well before I get 12 of them. Hopefully I may be able to fit them into
the Sun X2100, but will see.
Also, any issue to run a minimum of 100 VLan on them? I didn't see issue
in the archive, so I take it as been no problem! I don't think of any.
Any other suggestions is also welcome, I am more concern at the
efficiency of the cards as they will be routing and supporting many VLan
and PF will in some of the setup use individual VLan firewall
configuration, up to 125 in one case. Will see if I can make that work
well, not sure of my possible success, but will see...
Thanks for your time.
Hello,
the D-Link Card DFE-580TX works under OpenBSD, but their greatest
advantage is that they are cheap (around 100 Euro in Germany).
Don't expect to much performance.
The are useful if you have to connect a lot of networks (with small
traffic) and have not enough pci slots and money ;-)
I think you need something with better performance regarding to your setup.
