         128.97.10.0/24


Is this possible? (I have attempted to show a freebsd machine with two
interfaces, both on the same subnet but connected to different hubs)

If so, how does firewall machine know which interface to use when sending a
packet to the 128.97.10.0/24 subnet?

If not, how does one implement a firewall (without using nat) on an 'isp
assigned' subnet?  I've read countless faqs on nat-style firewalls and ipfw
rules, but none seem to address this "one subnet" issue.

Thanks for your help,

Chris
