iptables and performance

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I am new to iptables and have few question I hope you can help with:
1. Is there a limit to the number of rules I can add to specific chain?
I need to have around 20000 rules.
2. What is the performance implications of using this large number of
rules? Is there any numbers people can share.
3. I also saw the HIPAC project which claim to have much better
performance. Is there any work done to integrate same type of
functionality into iptables?

Thanks in advance,
Eli
