Yes, too bad it only includes 1 ethernet adapter.
That's what VLANs are for. Just make sure your switch doesn't
allow hopping. :)
Ah yes ;-)
Although, playing with the mini as a server looks more like
something I would do at home where I don't have VLAN capable switches.
I don't (yet?) feel like using a mini at work (well except for
workstation stuffs)... but sure, VLANs are ok.
You can pick up cheap VLAN-capable switches on eBay. I have a Dell
3024 at home which works fine and runs $100-150 used. I'd never use
these in an "enterprise" environment, but they're fine for home testing.
