That sounds like what I want.  What I've tried so far does not work.

I'd like the soekris box to allow four other computers to connect to the
built-in ethernet ports and be able to connect to each other as well as
the outside world via the ADSL modem.  To the attached computers, the
soekris box should appear under one single IP address.

Are there any examples online that use more than one port in the
example.  The documentation I've found so far only use a single internal
and a single external port. I'm needing more guidance.
