I heard rumors from the guys regularly failing at setting up the FW-1
properly that it is not possible to have a single port assigned to all
VLANs and inhibit routing between VLANs at the same time. I'll check on
this, but it seems logical to me.

Someone mentioned having "multiple virtual NICs" on one physical NIC
would do the trick, but I'm not very confident in his opinion. Ever
heard of such a thing?
