Hi Fabrizio, 

It Works on NSA 1085 nexcom machines, that one uses intel NICS and the 1 Gb
cards are detected as EM and the 100 Mb as fxp.
I use those nexcom machines a lot with monowall, works perfectly.

The NSA 1086 you mention uses different chipset and nics, and I never tried
it so don't know if they work.

Regards,

Jurgen

Hi Bjoern,

I've had a look at the Nexcom you suggested and it looks quite interesting.
By the way, I've read the specifications and the NSA 1086 which I found on
the web site has 8 Marvell network interfaces. Do you think they are
supported by m0n0wall? In the hardware notes of FreeBSD
4.11 I didn't find any reference to these NICs.
