First of all, I would like to point out that it might be a very bad idea to a= dd too many interfaces to the firewall. It will make it a big single-point of= failure and very often a switch can route traffic between networks much more= efficiently. Firewalls are always slow. However, you can just add more interfaces on the console and use them in the = firewall by creating a subnet. What would be your use-case for this? -Michael > On 24 Sep 2019, at 15:30, Klaus Gimm wrote: >=20 > Dear Sir or Madam, >=20 > as a Long time ipcop user i had installed this add on for a Long time and it > worked great for me:=20 >=20 > http://www.ban-solms.de/t/IPCop-xtiface.html >=20 > After the Switch to Ipfire as the follow-up Project to ipcop i do miss it > dearly.=20 >=20 >=20 > Is it possible to implement this functionality into IpFire?
