Regards, MH Hi, I can't tell you how much the Soekris 6501-70 does with plaintext traffic. But in an iked setup and AES encryption and no VPN card I get about 35 Mbps give or take 5 Mbps. In my setup the 6501-70 is between a Lanner 7530B firewall also with an Atom CPU (but i386)... Hope that helps, if any... Regards, -peter

We have exactly this model. tcpbench from base gave only around 340Mbit/s on those. So CPU is probably one problem on those boards. tcpbench done against 1U machines with better CPU and doing almost line rate on 1G NIC. //mxb On 8 dec 2014, at 00:53, Martin Hanson greencopperm...@yandex.com wrote: Hi, Anyone running OpenBSD 5.6 or current on Soekris 6501-70 who wouldn't mind sharing some through-put data for gigabit performance.

I didn't want to quote any particular numbers as I do not have any benchmarks but I was thinking in the hundreds of Mb/s range but not really high. The unfortunate reality is systems of this class are fine for low end to mid range use but are CPU limited for anything further. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

I would like to be able to run ~100-120 MB/s from one NIC to the other on this box, if possible?
Re: OpenBSD 5.6/current on Soekris 6501-70
Search the mailing list history. If you can't find that specific model Soekris you'll likely be able to find information for that NIC chipset (the Intel 82574L). -Gene On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 3:53 PM, Martin Hanson greencopperm...@yandex.com wrote: Hi, Anyone running OpenBSD 5.6 or current on Soekris 6501-70 who wouldn't mind sharing some through-put data for gigabit performance.
