Also, don't forget the new CHR, though it's still in beta.

A couple of quick thought for both of your.. Chuck & Forrest..
1) Most folks overlook or not aware of the Packet Generator / Traffic
Generator tool in Mikrotik
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Tools/Traffic_Generator
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Performance_Testing_with_Traffic_Generator
2) Most folks often forget that MT ROS is actually Software which will
run on most x86 machines...
i.e. you can load up the MT ROS on any PC hardware and get some of
the functionality needed.

I use something similar now. But only have one. And it is a bit
slow.
Considering what Forrest is building. Will try the MT router
initially and see what happens.

Otherwise next up is Fluke or JDSU

Demand for our GigE surge suppressor has been growing such
that I am now limited by my test station throughput.
Any ideas on how to test a GigE device go-nogo without buying
more big dollar testers (which I currently use)?
It needs to be fast and show speeds in both directions.
Have considered just putting up a GigE switch and plugging the
surge suppressor into two ports and seeing if they light. But
that sounds pretty cheap and dirty. Want to see numbers. A
laptop talking to another laptop with iperf may end up being
the solution. Not sure if there are GigE USB NICS so I could
do it all on one laptop or not.
Any other ideas?
