i need to build a high performance system for basic firewalling. it needs to have two gigE cards (fiber) and i'd like them to sit on different PCI busses for faster performance. i think that some linux network drivers can make use of hw checksumming on the NIC card, but i'm not sure which ones. does anybody have any experience or input on both a hardware box and NIC vendor? you can reply off-list and i'll post a summary. thanks, - brett - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org
