I've done some FreeBSD routing performance test 2 weeks ago and figured out that a P133 with 16Megs RAM and two 3c90x FastEthernet cards can easy route at full (!) Ethernet speed between it. I've got about 8-9 Megs a second (and one segment has a little bit other traffic). That is impressive (try to calculate what a Cisco router costs...). I'm going to make more of this routing performance test with an controlled environment and some HSSI cards (how mutch is a SDL-T3 card?). -- Andre Oppermann CEO / Geschaeftsfuehrer Internet Business Solutions Ltd.
