I am wondering about the specific design reasons for the second network interface on the Raq4, which ultimately determines its utility.
I guess the obvious bandwidth issue - two NICs for better throughput on the same network
I guess the obvious redundancy issue - two NICs in case one goes bad, on the same network
Is that it? Or could there be some routing done by the Raq4, i.e. could the two be on different networks?
