Along with other advice offered, you may wish to take a look at argus and ntop which are packages that collect nice summary information from ethernet traffic. They may be appropos to your goal.Hi all, I am planning to implement iptables log feature on a server machine(Dual xeon processor,Intel e100 cards,80GB SCSI and 2GB RAM) which is running in bridge mode (On RH 7.3).The average traffic on this machine is vary from 40-60Mbps.Hence I require some suggestion for some my questions like,
1) On this High traffic the kernel will be stable/crash ? 2) What would be the CPU Load and the server is able to do this job without any pain ? 3) Up to how much traffic the iptables/kernel can able to handle without any issue and what should I do additionally if I need the iptable-log should handle this much traffic?
Advance thanks for your suggestion and pointers.
