We have a Sun 3/160M with 2 Ethernet boards ( ie0 and ie1 ) and we wish to
use it as a router to isolate traffic on our local ethernet.  The
documentation is vague and apparently incomplete since following the
manuals has been unsuccessful, although the hardware at least now seems to
be working.

The setup is that we have two ethernet cards: ie0 which drives the local
network and ie1 which connects to the campus backbone.  If someone has
implemented a similar setup, then could you send me your /etc/gateways,
/etc/networks and /etc/netmasks files, and describe your ifconfig command?

Are there any other tricks?

Thanks in advance.
