[chbot] SBC with multiple NICS

[Michael, eDIY Software]

They are independent gigabit network ports.   I 3D printed a case for mine and one port plugs directly into the fibre optic  terminating box and I have two internal subnets and the fourth port is currently unused.

I'm running https://www.ipfire.org - it's been very flexible and reliable, literally zero issues since I set it up however many years ago.

Mike,

Are the NICs independent, or is there an on-board eth switch ??
