[leaf-user] Compact Flash VS. disk-on-module VS. disk-on-chip ?

2002-10-13 Thread K a z


Is there any real difference or benefit to using one of these over the 
other? I remember reading through the archives someone mentioned they bought 
a SECURE disk-on-module somewhere. Does this mean it can be write-protected 
like a floppy? Or is there some utility available to enable/disable write 
protection via a password or something?

I have a feeling if I use one of these larger storage options for my remote 
LEAF application, I will be losing the benefit of a secure boot disk. The 
problem is I think my application will reqiure daily changes to the 
configuration remotely. Any ideas?

- Kaz



P.S. Is there something going on with Sourceforge  Hotmail or something? 
Seems like messages to the list get sent to me at very erraticaly. I.e, This 
message might get sent back to me right away,
or more likely - a day from now.

[leaf-user] Anyone in Northern California / SF Bay area?

2002-10-10 Thread K a z


Might be interested in paying someone local for some consulting/hand-holding 
for our LEAF project.

We are going to be hooking up 100mbits over TP to start, but will quickly 
moving to 300mbits over gigabit ethernet with fiber.

We might need someone to help setting up the LEAF box to do all the things 
we want to do (bandwidth limiting  prioritizing, reports via MRTG etc).

If you are in the Northern California or SF Bay Area  would might be 
intested.. feel free to email me. We are on sort of shoestring budget for 
this.. but email anyway  maybe we can work something out.

[leaf-user] Recommend GIGABIT NIC's for leaf box?

2002-10-09 Thread K a z


I plan to start out with a 100mbit connection from my provider, but will 
quickly move to 300mbit over Gigabit Ethernet. Could someone list a few good 
server class gigabit NIC's that are supported by Leaf/Bering.

Thanks,

Kaz

[leaf-user] Possible to limit SMTP traffic by IP?

2002-10-05 Thread K a z


Does anyone know of a way to limit the number of emails a box/IP could send 
out per day? I'm going to be starting a colocation hosting business here 
soon. I would like to lock down SMTP a little bit if possible, I doubt it is 
though.

[leaf-user] Possible to cap the bandwidth of an IP/domain with LEAF/Bering

2002-09-02 Thread K a z



If I wanted to offer someone a capped 5 mbits of bandwidth, how could I do 
that with LEAF/Bering? I saw that it had rate limiting, but it was for 
bursting... for number of connections per second.

Thanks,

Kaz

[leaf-user] Could/should I use LEAF for this application?

2002-09-01 Thread K a z


Hello LEAF users,

We are going to be getting a full 100mbit line dropped to us in a colocation 
facility. We plan to resell part of this bandwidth to about about 20 
dedicated and colocated clients. I am trying to come up with a cheap, 
effective  easy solution to serve these clients AND manage/throttle/cap 
their bandwidth consumption.

I have been administrating my own (FreeBSD) boxes for about 7 years now, so 
I know my way around unix a bit. However, I have never been faced with 
networking at this level, and don't really know about RIP and the various 
bandwidth management options available.

So far here is what I came up with:

Solution #1 CISCO Layer3 Switch ~$2500:

CISCO Catalyst WS-C2948G-L3 Layer 3 Switch.
It Does RIP, does ACL rate-limiting for (crude?) bw management.
Seems like a single-appliance solution -- price $2000-$3000 Ugh.

Solution #2 ETINC software + Switch ~$1500:

Banwidth Management software from www.etinc.com
(applied on one of my boxes). I _think_ I could run
that box as a router still... then all I would need
would be a good 24-48 port switch (could someone recommend?).
Price?... $700 for the software, ~$300 for the box, another
$500 for the switch? (maybe thats too much).. Total ~$1500.00.

Solution #3 -- LEAF + Switch = ~$800 (or less!):

Could leaf handle this on a good box? All I would need then
would be a good switch right?


Keep in mind, it is a FULL 100mbit line - and we will be paying
for the bandwidth. If we aren't getting full wire speed or
whatever.. its probably because of some hardware bottleneck or
something somewhere. So I sort of wanted to use good hardware -
or at least a solution that would be compareable to the CISCO
router.

Thanks for reading,

Kaz

RE: [leaf-user] Could/should I use LEAF for this application?

2002-09-01 Thread K a z

I think Bering/ WISP are good candidates for the following reasons:

WISP is for wireless networks no? None of this network would be wireless 
(its at a datacenter/carrier hotel).

I was looking at the bering install/users guide at:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/busers.html

I'm not really even sure where to begin. I have never done networking at 
this level. I guess it would be the PPPoE configuration since they would be 
giving me a block or two of 255 IPs to start  a 100mbit ethernet line... 
right? I'm just trying to figure out where to start reading.
