( peruser and all users) , total 5. sitara works in promiscuous mode, like no need to mention any IP address to any interface ( is this bridgemode, iam not sure) how to build like this kind of setup with out ip address and it will be places between my users and cisco router between like this users----QOS box---switch---Router---ISP Hope some one can help me to build this kind of box and help me on hardware recomendations blu ----- __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
