To test the setup i used : HYPERLINK \
"http://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html"http://www.netperf.org/netperf/NetperfPage.html
First and most importent use :
Some intel based netcard : intel pci-x 1000MT
Turn on Freebsd fastwarding ( freebsd got a fastforwarding plane)
then recompiled the kernel with polling and tweaked the kernel.
thats it

Hi Thomas,
This is very interesting news. I was interested in what method you are using to \
determine throughput on the BSD router? Are you using any particular manufacturer of \
gbit nics? Are you tweaking the kernel or any specific parameters. Are you just using \
two interfaces?
Thanks for your help.

Emne: [quagga-users 7126] Linux per-flow vs per packet load balancing
Hi group,
My goal is per-packet load-balancing, not per-flow. I wanted to explore OSPF ECMP, \
but I don't believe it can do per-packet. TEQL I heard is bad whether or not it can \
do per-packet or not. The "Equalize" keyword or flag setting I heard is bad news.
I'm looking at a Linux platform for this, or BSD, but BSD according to Gobble is NOT \
a good routing platform.
L2 channel bonding NICs may be an option, but what use would it have? I use bond0 on \
Sourcefire IDS's for work so I am familiar with the workings.
My goal is to achieve highest network performance using Linux routers for a fraction \
of the cost of a Cisco.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Regards,
Michael Bernstein
