  Considering I have servers with as many as 11 NICs by basher202007-07-25 08:09:06
    Why? by Myke 2007-07-25 09:00:52
Get a dot1q capable card and a VLANning switch... then you can have as many physical 'interfaces' as you have switchports (-1)

I used to do the multiple NIC thing, but it got too unmanageable with that many cables, and PCI cards and multi-port cards.

A good Intel GigE NIC is < $65CAD new and a Cisco 2924 (non GigE) is < $100 on eBay, or a Linksissy SRW2024 is about $450 CAD...
