[leaf-user] Nexcom NSA 2189L

2008-01-17 Thread Erich Titl
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 Erich - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges. Mi

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. On Fri, 2008-01-18 at 09:02 +, Erich Titl wrote: > > cpu memhd wro

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
