Hi Folks
I recall someone mentioning the Nexcom NSA2189 for a 24 port router. Has
someone already tried it with the current Bering-uClibc?
Thanks

Hey Erich,
I haven't tried it. But I thought I should comment on the architecture. It
uses the Xeon Blackford chipset, which uses FB-DIMMS, which run very hot.
I have 4 DIMMS, 4GB RAM in one of my personal servers, a 5000V Blackford
and the DIMMs seem to generate lots more heat than the CPU: a Xeo

Can you tell us where we can order the Nexcom systems from and how much
they cost? Also, has anybody done any analysis to see if these systems
are overkill? LEAF should not need Xeon processors, even for 24 Gbit
ports.

They have local distributors (which they are for your country should be
available on their website at www.nexcom.com - but beware, it seems this
is a "IE only" site - it seems to be utterly b

It may be overkill, but just th
Hello,
I don't think it's overkill and would probably start off with a quad
processor for 24 gigabit ports. But I honestly don't know which apps can
take advantage of the multiple processors and how the kernel uses smp for
networking/routing, etc.
There are other things besides ipsec and routing
