Re: EdgeRouter Ethernet

Unsure!  It's been confusing me.  I am forced to go in on console and
reset the interface a few times before it works.
Not great for a gateway.

Given that and the bpgjit thread with npf... I sometime wish there was
someone that has a description of setting up a working soho router
with say a secure and private network stub and routing rules with
npf... as the ones in The Guide are mostly for dial-up/ppp/ipfilter
and have few config file examples.

I've been trying to set up pair of these ERLITEs with carp and such to
replace some aging i386 machines that take a lot more power than I'd
like, but haven't gotten them -just right-. At least with carp
actually working.
