Really? That means the two ports can be bound to different interfaces
(eth0 and eth1) with different IPs?
I ask because, the PCI bus of my 3-network bridge being rather full, I
wanted to buy one from 3com (

), but their rep told me it was just used for
failover -- the two ports could only transmit the same data.
