Re: Regarding CCIE Lab

They work fine. You can have multiple NICs.

I set up a Mac Mini to do this. The built in ethernet was my
control/access port. Then I had four USB hubs and a total of twelve
10/100 USB NICs off of them to use with Dynamips.

One PC, four 3560 switches. It worked. Not nearly as cool as real
routers, but it was functional. :) In my case it was a "to prove I
could" thing, not a necessary thing.
