Hi,
I'm using a quagga 0.99.17 box with dual cpu with 6C each,with 6GB Memory
running on FreeBSD 8.1-R-p6.
i wonder what do you think about this box on term of DDoS handling, pps
handling and so on.
if you have recommendations on how to improve max pps I appreciate it.

the Nics configuration is as follows:
I have a dual-10G card 82599EB connected to a users switch and to an
upstream native exchange pointo in our country which handle regularly 1-2GB
daily and a BraodCam BCM5709 card connected to an upstream in which i
exchange a full routing table and a 100MBit line to the world.
more i have a Quad-82571EB card, in which one port connected to another
switch and other port connected to a MPD server for home users.

Moreover I want to enable ECMP (MRADIX_PATH?) but i really don't know how it
works and how tocontrol it and there are barely documentation on this,only
things i read on the mailing lists and its not that clear to me.

IPFW and traffic sharing is enabled (dummynet).

Any recommendation are appreciated, your opinion is extremly important to
me.

Thanks in advance,
