[c-nsp] GigE cards for 6509

[Paul Stewart]

That's good to know.. anyone know the actual card throughput on the 6148
card?  Tried to find it online but haven't found anything useful yet...
this card (either the 16 port GigE or 48 port 10/100/1000) won't be
taxed at all but it's nice to know you won't run out neither..:)
