Henning, could you please confirm for us if the 32bit bandwidth limit was
lifted in the new queuing subsystem, or if it is just still in place whilst
dual-running the new and the old?
otoh it is still there, but rather easy to lift.

I guess considering Hrvoje's findings the limit

Unfortunately on the Cisco part I don't SFP+.
I have XENPACK option only which give me 3 options:
SR ~ 3K GPL
LRM ~ 1.5K GPL (I can't find any LRM GBIC for Intel side)
CX4 ~ 600 GPL
I'd avoid CX4, you

Yea CX4 will work, its the chipset that matters. But CX4 is short range
and superseded, and by using SFP+ you can pick and choose your
transceivers for fibre or CAT cabling etc.

Well the Cisco CX4 costs ~ 600$ List price,
while the SR one costs 3.000$ List
The choice is of course yours.. ;)
It would be worth trying a Cisco 'compatible' first before spending the
big bucks on 'branded' optics..

Anyway, this is quite a personal decision and does affect support..

Hi,
I've just received a Cisco 6704 for my 10G uplinks.
I'm looking for a network adapter to put on my OpenBSD primary firewall.
I had in mind to use Intel X520-SR2 but the SR module of Cisco is too
expensive...
So I'm looking for either LRM or CX4 GBIC options to put on the C6704.

We bought the Intel x520-DA2 cards as they gives you the flexibility of
using any SFP+ transceiver.. If you buy the SR2 you are locked to using
short range fibre and the optics for the other end can get expensive!
NB; Their is a whole world of compatible optics out there which are
just as good
PS; I hope you have reeaaaly fast servers..
NB; ALTQ is currently 32bit so you cannot queue faster than 4 and a bit
gig, unless you go for Hennings new queueing system which I'm still yet
to do when I actually find time..
