Re: Multicast Routing Performance
Ahh! I am doing some testing of multicast video streaming. It streams a single 8Mbps stream fine but if I add another to it the throughput just falls away for both streams. Am I asking too much to stream approx 16Mbps? I kinda thought that 100Mbps NICs and a PIII would handle it. I don't suppose there are any settings I can tweak? cheers Gavin --- Olivier Nicole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Does any one have any experience of using a > FreeBSD > > Box as a multicast router? > > > > I have a PIII 800Mhz with two 100Mbps NICS, what > kind > > of throughput can I expect to get out of this > setup? > > We have been doing that for years. > > But don't expect too much speed with a PIII 800, we > usually have > something like 10Mbps brust traffic. > > Olivier __ Yahoo!

We have been doing that for years. But don't expect too much speed with a PIII 800, we usually have something like 10Mbps brust traffic.

Maybe it depends on what else other than routing services you have to run on that machine, but I don't think that would be a problem.

Multicast Routing Performance
Does any one have any experience of using a FreeBSD Box as a multicast router? I have a PIII 800Mhz with two 100Mbps NICS, what kind of throughput can I expect to get out of this setup? please can you cc [EMAIL PROTECTED] cheers Gavin __ Yahoo!
