[c-nsp] Faulty Card

[Oliver Garraux]

You might also want to think about port groups and oversubscription,
depending on the models of both of the cards.  If you just put the 16
connections on the first 16 ports on the 48 port card, there might be
more oversubscription if the 48 port card isn't line rate, depending
on how the port groups are laid out.
