RE: Debian - Should be: Experience of Debian as 1gb/s router?
Hi,
Route and filter one gig/s of data through a PC is kind of problematic.
If Linux and GPL stuff is the only choice and with the below specifications
my bet is that it would max out at approx. 500 Mbps with >512 byte packets.
Smaller packet sizes ecuals less over all performance in Mbps.
I'd go hw-based.
