Maximum PCI ethernet cards

Hello there!
I'd like to know the maximum number of ethernet cards that linux can support. What's the limitations? Is the PCI bus which limit ? My aims is to configure a firewall with a ethernet for each workgroup. I'll have a box with enough PCI slot.
Best regards.

if you have room for 'em in your box, you can configure them.
