tlf30 0 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Hello, I was thinking how useful it would be to be able to have multiple network cards in a computer and to be able to isolate their communication to a side of the computer. This would of course not be possible on servers, but would be nice else where. Thanks, Trevor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Molinko 43 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 This is actually the opposite. Computers neglect the side of a network message and server racks can be configured to output messages or broadcasts to just one side of the server rack. [Edit] I was trying to address op from the context of his last sentence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dgelessus 26 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Wasn't the point of the OP that this side-based behavior should be allowed for non-server computers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tlf30 0 Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 The issue I am having with the servers is that it still hits every side depending on how the internet switch is set up. I just want a way to receive messages from one side and send different ones on another without them being sent on both sides Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mpmxyz 27 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Why aren't you using Microcontrollers? https://github.com/MightyPirates/OpenComputers/issues/788 They can send messages to a specific side. To receive messages from one side only you can combine multiple microcontrollers. (and tell only one of them to forward messages) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
