Hi Guys, Ive been reading all over the web on performance tests done against iptables and its ability to perform both state and non-state filtering. I am setting up a pretty decent server for some testing and I was wondering if you guys could give me some ideas on how to fully push iptables to its limits (different type of traffic, different usage, string matching/u32 module and such...) Server consists of: Quad Cor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5420 @ 2.50GHz 32gig Ram 220gig Sata (not worried about this as im trying to keep most things in ram) Intel Gig nics Running: Debian 5.0 + grsec I will later post results and poc online for others to view Any/All ideas are welcome =) Thanks, -- Payam Tarverdyan Chychi Network Security Specialist / Network Engineer -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
