G'day folks,
I am considering using a decent Linux machine to use as an IP Masq
box. It would have two gigabit ethernet cards and would potentially
"hide" 2000-3000 machines.
Are there any problems that I might encounter? This machine would need
to keep track of the megabytes sent and received hence the need for one
HUGE table of ipfwadm-type commands, i.e. one line for each user for
each direction.
Any general comments on this scale of things?
Thanks for any info on this, Dave.
