I have this opportunity to use freebsd as a router serving 15 subnets with six fast ethernet cards(will do aliasing to support all 15 subnets) supporting about 1,200 PCs running windows. In addition, this freebsd router will also run samba 2.0.6( to act as local master browser for all subnets) and ipfilter and nothing else. All PCs are connected to switches with 10/100 mbit ports. Question: Is there any special tuning I can do to maximize routing performance under the above setup? Should I increase values for bpfilter and maxusers? What kernel options should I focus on? Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Regards, LLU To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
