you may need a commercial system to keep up, or at least one box per connection. If you have a lot of 'small' < 64 byte packets, you might forget the pizza box. (run ntop on a sniffer link for a week and see) The backplane on most 'pizza bozes' is 3.2Gbs max., and two bidirectional 1GB pipes would be, well, more than the available backplane bandwidth. -----Original Message----- From: snort-users-bounces () lists sourceforge net [mailto:snort-users-bounces () lists sourceforge net] On Behalf Of Marc Appelbaum Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 8:24 AM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] GIG IDS I'm looking for any insight into successful gigabyte Snort deployments. My network is huge multi-gigabyte environment. Most of the connections to my firewalls are gig. My Intenet connections are mostly dual OC-12s. I'm thinking about using a high end Linux with say Red Hat 4 or FreeBSD with at least 4 GB RAM with a Dual Core Intel CPU. Any advice is very welcome. --Marc
