Router with 2 ethernet ports

Hi,

Is there a router available that has 2 ethernet ports so each port can connect to its own ethernet segment. I suppose similar to RRAS on a miltihomed Windows box, but this would be hardware based.

All the routers I see have 1 ethernet port and serial ports.

We do have a PIX on site and we have used VLANs and PIXs before to kind of route between the 2 subnets but I thought a proper router will do a better job.

Or would you just use a low end router with a single ethernet port and have both subnets assigned to the single interface and then route from there.

Thanks

Nathan
