Hi,

  I have one question: how to determine the load of masquerading on CPU
and on all Linux system?

  Please correct me if I'm wrong, but top and other similar utilites show
only load which is carried by system above kernel level (as in my case
there are always 0% of load - as only masquerading is working on that
machine). And what I see is: the throughput (if I transfering
100MByte-file) is somehow related to number of connections established
(2.5MB/s with several connections comparing to 500MB/s with several
hundred connections). There is not the case when the lines is overloaded
as I've experimented with backup firewall system connected to the same
lines but without x hundred of masqueraded connections).

Can somebody explay what is happening and how to analyze and calculate
resources needed for NAT tasks on linux ?

Vilius Benetis
