Hi guys,
Thanks for the feedback so far. I wish there was more, but just a quick
notes, that there is not point of arguing on talking about different
cards. Just trying to find the very efficient dual or quad card that can
route almost full capacity traffic is really the goal. Having a great
card that work for a home setup is well, but not really what I am
looking for. This is to pull out Cisco routers with FastEthernet
interface and Gb interface in peering points, and to be replace by
OpenBSD. So, efficiency and reliability is really the key. If there is
very good feedback great, if not, I will just need to tests a few
different one and see the results. The good news is that at a minimum,
the cards are not thousand of $ each, so testing in the end take time
and cost some, but nothing to kill about either. The bad side is that it
may affect connectivity and that's not something I wish to do, so the
testing needs to be minimal. After all testing with live customers is
not nice! (:>
I think having a card that use less CPU would be great as it's more
likely to be more efficient, but will see. Keep the feedback coming, on
the list or in private to reduce the noise is fine by me.
Thanks
Daniel
