Hello List,

We have a monitoring app that receives udp packets from units in the 
field. We are in
the process of increasing the number of units we have reporting and are 
seeing some
performance issues with our current hardware. I would like be able to 
somehow route a
copy of each packet to another machine so I can test out different 
hardware configurations
to see how performance is affected.

Any ideas on the best way to do this?

Thanks in advance,
Steve
