Thanks to the list again.
There's lots more options than I'd considered.
I think it's likely that I'll stick with what I know, which is Linux not
FreeBSD and Quagga. The lack of a need to learn new stuff is the my main
motivation behind this because I'm unlikely to break things as frequently.

You should take a look at HP. They have very good gigabit switches and
also offer lifetime guarantee on them.
HP actually has a CLI to configure the switch, not the crap 3Com has.
This might be of some use, it's a document written by one of the AMS-IX
engineers, it's a little aged (almost 2 years old) so there should be
some improvement in the numbers, but it might give you some insight in
the bottlenecks when pushing a Linux server to it's max (10Gigabit in
this case)
Dear Chris,
One final quick question on the NICs if I can. Following Mike's suggestion
about specific Intel chipsets (82575 or 82576) it looks like it's much
easier to source the chipsets mentioned by David (82571EB). If these NICs
are embedded on the motherboard is it going to be of

Depending on your WAN interface, there's actually a decent amount of
stuff out there. The cheaper alternative to me has actually always been
to get some old cisco hardware with the proper interfaces and use it for
media conversion. I have a 6500 with Sup1As in it. It can't

Or tinker with iptables.
And last I checked, even with multiple 'nexthop' entries, it still
wasn't smart enough to drop a route if you lose an interface.
One final query for this thread if I may.
Our hardware provider has come back with this as an 'easy to source build'

Not to defend 3Com or anything, but all of their enterprise stuff (for quite
a few years now) has an extremely similar CLI to IOS. Came out very shortly
after they got involved with Huawei.
If you're already familiar with 3com enterprise gear, check out the 4200G
series for cheap L2
Recently I've been searching for something that is comparable to Arbor to see
what else is out there. Someone suggested Narus.
Anyone out there have an opinion regarding the 2 applications and their
differences? Or another application that is worth noting?

cf-disk support is pretty easy to add to lots of things. With the advent

Dear Joe,
Several different traffic shaping strategies are available, and I think
all of them go far beyond simple.
ipfw 100 add pipe 1 all from 192.168.0.0/24 to any xmit vlan1
ipfw pipe 1 config bw 95Mbit/s queue 200Kbytes
thats simple.
cons: only 1 route for each network, vrrp failover
We spent a good amount of time looking into deploying a home-grown
Linux-based CPE device over the summer.
Generally, Linux is not the issue with performance. You want to focus
on your hardware.
We've seen the best performance with Intel MT series PCI-X server NICs.
When we were testing the
Imagestream does nice work as well.

Hi everyone,
I'm going to rebuild IP allocation policy of my company and I am looking for

I have already studied some standard like RFC1518, RIPE181, RFC2050 and I got

nothing can always be guaranteed in life or the internet.
but /24s do seem to be fairly widely used. so they probably work for
the folk announcing them.

Chi Young, let me clarify one thing here ..
Do you mean IP allocation as in subnet allocation, swipping in apnic
or through a rwhois server etc?
Or do you mean what is the minimum subnet size I can announce on the
internet and have other providers not drop it on the floor?

Suresh,
Yes, I guess my concern is close to the second meaning.
It seems so simple. Currently annoucement of /24 seems to be okey, most
upstream providers accept this.
However I wonder if there is any ground rule based on any standard or official
recommandation.
If there is some standardized
You have to change your server's IP address if you want move your server to
other place
- It is very natural case, but some customer could think of it will be okey
to move if they have C class.
but I have different idea. because the border router of that center is
annoucing more greater IP
In general, announce what you are allocated from the RIR. The minimum
allocation from you will see is a /24.
A couple examples:

https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-ncc-managed-address-space.html
If you are allocated a /22, announce the /22. Do
Even if a longer prefix like a /24 is announced, chances of people
accepting it is slim. Especially, as you say, if the RIR allocation
is something larger than /24
And I have a feeling acceptance /24 route announcements of anything
other than legacy classful space, infrastructure space like the
