RE: What speed?

Well, it's not a windows box...

We've got a dual PIII 1GHz with a ServerWorks 64bit/66MHz Gigabit NIC and
265Mb ram - that does about 10% CPU per 30Mbit, with stream4, defrag and
full Whitehats ruleset (binary logging) - it scales pretty linearly, so we
should be able to go to 300Mbit in theory, although I suspect it will
actually go higher, since there'a a base overhead from just running the
system.

Subject: [Snort-users] What speed?


Can someone tell me up to what speed can Snort handle on the Windows
platforms? Will it do 100 Mbps?

Thanks for the info!

Simon
