Is Vyatta really not suited for the task? I keep checking up on it and holding off looking into it as they don't support multicast yet. Modern commodity sever hardware these days often out-powers big iron enough to make up for not using ASICs, though, at least on the lower end of the spectrum. Does anyone have any more details on Vyatta not scaling? Were you trying to run it as a VM? What were you using for NICs? etc. The hardware matters. Saying Vyatta doesn't cut it could mean anything... On Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 7:36 PM, Dobbins, Roland <rdobbins () arbor net> wrote:
