Hi,
I'm setting up a linux box as a router/firewall and I'm wondering if
there are any best practices with regards to network settings that
should be tweaked in this situation.
In particular I'm wondering if the default pfifo_fast is susceptible to
a single flow flooding the buffer and causing other flows to lose
packets? Is there an alternative that would work better in terms of
fairness but doesn't create too much overhead or is overly complicated
to configure?
The system has 1Gbit interfaces.
Regards,
Dennis
