Cloud Hosted Router. It's a branch of ROS with drivers and other support specific to virtual environments. It has FastPath for x86 as well. There's a thread on their forum and we talked about it in the last TBW.

Chuck & Forrest.. 1) Most folks overlook or not aware of the Packet Generator / Traffic Generator tool in Mikrotik http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Tools/Traffic_Generator http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Performance_Testing_with_Traffic_Generator 2) Most folks often forget that MT ROS is actually Software which will run on most x86 machines... i.e. you can load up the MT ROS on any PC hardware and get some of the functionality needed. :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet & Telecom 7266 SW 48 Street Miami, FL 33155 Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 Help-desk: (305)663-5518 Option 2 or Email: supp...@snappytelecom.net ----- Original Message ----- <blockquote> From: "Chuck McCown" <ch...@wbmfg.com> To: af@afmug.com Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2015 9:13:32 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] GigE Testing <blockquote> I use something similar now.

Any ideas on how to test a GigE device go-nogo without buying more big dollar testers (which I currently use)? It needs to be fast and show speeds in both directions. Have considered just putting up a GigE switch and plugging the surge suppressor into two ports and seeing if they light. But that sounds pretty cheap and dirty. Want to see numbers. A laptop talking to another laptop with iperf may end up being the solution. Not sure if there are GigE USB NICS so I could do it all on one laptop or not. Any other ideas? </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote>
