Lpar, power5, how many nics?



Lpar, aix5.3, power5 environment. I want to cut up, say 5 lpars out of a managed system.

Isn't it true, if I want to get out to other nodes, away from my managed system, I need to have a separate nics for each Lpar?

I know I can virt I/O between these nodes within the managed system and not need nics to do that.

thank you!
