Hi,
I am seeking for advice on how to set up a device to aggregate and distribute
the traffic coming in two 1000BaseT traffic feeds across four 1000BaseT outputs.
These are the basic requirements:
- Input: Two different traffic feeds 1000BaseT, connected to different ports
in an Intel network card (let's say, eth1, eth2)
- Output: Input (eth1, eth2) has to be aggregated on a single stream (fan-out)
and spread out across eth3, eth4, eth5 and eth6.
I was thinking of using:
../PF_RING/userland/examples_zc/zbalance_ipc -i zc:eth1,zc:eth2 -c 1 -n 10 -m 2
-a -d
at the input to aggregate the 2 traffic feeds
and distribute it at the output like this
../PF_RING/userland/examples_zc/zbounce -i zc:1@1 -o eth3,eth4,eth5,eth6 -c 1
I would appreciate any advice about the PF_RING applications to use, if those
above are not correct.
Also, it would be great to have some hardware recommendations for this
application taking into account that I expect to get wire-speed packet capture
at the outputs.
For instance, I don't know if I should expect better performance from one
single Intel 1000BaseT 8-port card compared to two Intel 1000BaseT 4-port card,
or if there is any server platform that performs well for this kind of
applications...
Thanks!
Fernando
