I'm pondering the idea of trying to build a relatively inexpensive 10Gb capture
box.
The simple solution is a dell R710 with 10Gb nics. I have some, they work, but
I'd have to spend $50k to get enough of them.
So, my challenge is keeping the price point is something around $1000-$1500 -
basically the 10Gb version of a 1u gigE capture system.
We're investigating this at the moment. I think you'll struggle to
achieve that price point if you want to capture a significant fraction
of 10G e.g. >6G.
In particular, you want a good NIC with good drivers, and those are
several hundred UK pounds, so well in excess of $500 I expect.
What operating system are you targeting?
