Oh, Brocade, recent experience with ServerIron taught me new lesson,
that i can't
do bonding on ports as i want, it has limitations about even/odd port
numbers and
etc.
Most amazing part i just forgot, that i have this ServerIron, and it
is a place where
i run DDoS protection (but it works perfectly over "tap" way). Thanks
for reminding
about this vendor :)
I just hope you're not talking FCX's.... if you upgrade those to 8.x
firmware, you'll lose sflow on the 10gb ports. Once you upgrade, they
send a corrupted sflow packet, and at *far* less then the rate that you
configure. Even if you adjust your parser to compensate for the corrupt
packet, they're still dropping the large majority of samples, making
sflow pretty much useless.
It's been several months since we reported this, and we're still waiting
on a fix.
