Correct. There is a collision, but the clients won't be aware of it.. > Btw what happens on my linux box? It won't know who is who of the two and things will behave very odd for those stations. To get around this you need to use a vlan per port, and some advanced connection marking and policy routing on the linux box to route each to their correct port (vlan). This will work most of the time, but it can not be 100% guaranteed and will fail if the two stations choose the same source port while talking to the same destination at the same time..
