Hi Thanks, that did the trick. I'm am doing some testing with PF_ring, just to learn about its capabilities. I have this setup: client -- linux machine -- server
When a client is connected directly to the server, the client can send about 151458 transactions/min When I place a linux machine configured as a bridge with brctl, the client sends about 131822/transactions/min with two instance of pfbridge (one each way) and pf_ring.ko at transparent=0 running on the linux machine, the throughput is 7236/min the same as above with transparent = 1, the throughput is 38040/min with transparent = 2, the throughput is 57001/min Is this the expected performance? Or would pf_bridge at full performance be expected to operate at about the same level as brctl? I realise pf_bridge is just an example, but it is impressive to see the transparent options in action.
