ASUS P5N32 SLI Deluxe dual LAN question

2 LAN ports, one is supported by a Marvell 88E8053 Gigabit controller and the other is an NVidia controller (but my user manual says that they are both Marvell controllers??)... anyway, is there a difference between the two?

both controllers use the Marvell Chipset. Apparently one supports the Active Armor firewall and the other appears to not...presumably for use as an ICS box (that's just WAG)
