Hello, I have a netfilter firewall which is running at around 20k packets per second. I want to know how much load the current packet rate is causing to the server? The usual w does not give any thing. More importantly how do I know if this packet rate is hitting or about to hit any limits? How much more pps will my system take? I have searched a lot to find any information about this, but there are not much information about netfilter load. But there is a nice article about freebsd pf at http://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20060927091645 with warm regards, raj
