I'm in the need to replace my two 100mbit fxp nic's in my firewall
with a 1000mbit one. The hardware is kinda old. (PIII)
I'm looking for an inexpensive but not bad (so I think no realtek
chips) nic.
Have looked at sk and bge, but couldn't find any bge nics at my local
vendors. So... which driver to go? sk? em?
Do you expect doing more than 100mbits with this hadware (with PF
anabled) ?
I'm maxing a P4 2.4Ghz at 40mbits, with a dual em, and a ~300 lines
pf.conf
What is your packets/sec when your pushing 40Mbs? Does the traffic flow
in one em and out the other or is the dual em in a trunk (i.e. 2Gbs)?
