10. Networking

10.1. Where can I get information booting FreeBSD ``diskless'', that is booting and running a FreeBSD box from a server rather than having a local disk?

10.2. I've heard that you can use a FreeBSD box as a dedicated network router - is there any easy support for this?

10.3. Does FreeBSD support SLIP and PPP?

10.4. How do I get my network set up? I don't see how to make my /dev/ed0 device!

10.5. How can I setup Ethernet aliases ? It always says: ``File exists''.

10.6. How do I get my 3C503 to use the other network port?

10.7. I'm having problems with NFS to/from FreeBSD and my Wuffotronics Workstation / generic NFS appliance, where should I look first?

10.8. Why can't I NFS-mount from a Linux box?

10.9. Why can't I NFS-mount from a Sun box?

10.10. I'm having problems with my NeXTStep machines and other FreeBSD ones accross PPP

10.11. I want to enable IP multicast support on my FreeBSD box, how do I do it? (Alternatively: What the heck IS multicasting and what applications make use of it?)

10.12. The 2.1.0R release notes speaks of network card based on the DEC PCI chipset, what are they ?
