Hi All,
I'm really impressed with ethereal as a tool, great job guys!
 
I want to setup ethereal to sniff over a Gigabit ethernet[fiber] link
in a Linux box.
- I need recomendations about the possible cards I can use for this ?
need to build something similar to the NAI Gigabit Ethernet

- What is the best configuration in terms of drivers and Gig cards to build a 
Gig sniffer using  ethereal and Linux ?

- What is the maximum line rate a Gig sniffer can run on using ethereal ? has 
anyone done any testing regarding this ?

thanks,
-abhi
