Hello, I got this rather stupid question from a customer and I got me stuck somehow. It is the kind of question that shows the customer has no clue at all but that's OK.
So the question is: what is the maximum number of policies ? At first I was tempted to simply toss it away as in, well, we'll have to see how the Perl processing goes and how much RAM it takes to load a maximum number of policies on a target device. But then the target device has at least 4 LAN interfaces, and some 4 to 6 WAN interfaces. How many policies can you write for such a number of interfaces after all ? Then I got curious a bit of started to think well, if the number of interfaces were 100 LAN interfaces and 100 WAN interfaces, would that constitute a basis for an eventual maximum number of policies ? So, is there a good answer to such a question ? ;-) Cheers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Shorewall-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-users
