Hello, I've setuped an ethernet bridge on a debian sarge 3.1 with l7-filter + ipp2 shapper rules The server is a supermicro p4sci + celeron pentium 4 base 3ghz + 512Mb + 2 ethernet e1000 One interface is connected to a cisco catalyst switch The other interface is connected directly to a CMTS (a sort of router for cable modem) configured as bridge too. More than 20Mbps of bandwith cross this bridge. Most of this traffic is p2p (~80%) When traffic goes over 14Mbps the bridge seems to saturate (overflow ? ) and start to make colision and loose packets I've take a look to this paper http://facweb.cti.depaul.edu/jyu/Publications/Yu-Linux-TSM2004.pdf And with a duron 1,3Ghz+512 mbps he obtain these values Input Rate 28,444,444 (bps) Latency 29 (us) Throughput 28,000,000 (bps) Linux CPU 77% Occupancy A duron 1,3 is less powered than a celeron p4 3 ... So I don't understand why I've got this problem :( When I make a "top" or "uptime" all seems that works well ... I've got rrdtool graphs that check cpu and load and seems normal too ... Does someone have got somes ideas ? Any clue or tips to isolate/resolve the problem are welcome Regards _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
