the lazy mans HW research

[bmanning at vacation.karoshi.com (bmanning at vacation.karoshi.com)]

morning gentle people.

	i find myself in need of a multiport (8-16) 1 Gig ethernet HUB.

	or a switch smart enough to do transparant port mirroring to at least
	four ports.

	some kind soul pointed me here, http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=337
	but its not clear if this will actually perform as desired.

	suggest to the suggestable listener?
