We had to pull it not because of any issues with the software, but because of (indirect) hardware problems. We used to not ground things as well as we do now. The system we had had a PCI four-port Ethernet card installed, and over time lightning rendered enough of the interfaces inoperable that we could no longer use the system for that. (At the time, nobody in my office knew very much about FreeBSD or NetBSD or whichever BSD it used, so replacing the card and simply changing the interfaces' MACs in software wasn't feasible.) >From what I recall, the fact that you had a choice of both Web interfaces or scriptable CLI to set up a bunch of rules quickly was nice, and this was over eight years ago; I'm sure the product has improved greatly since then. (For the record, we now use Mikrotik for bandwidth shaping. Nothing against ETInc, as such, we've just moved on.) David Smith MVN.net
