Hi,
I have am setting up a router that needs to handle a lot of
traffic. I am using a Dell 2950 that I have added Intel
Gig cards into
(em). This server will be running quagga (for BGP) and also use a
couple of IPFW FWD rules to forward packets to another host.
In order to get the forwarding speed I need I have turned on the
sysctl variable net.inet.ip.fastforwarding=1 What is the
ramifications of this? Will it still work with routing
software like
quagga or allow IPFW to still forward packets?
RTFM: man 4 inet
Ahhh. OK Thanks.
I did look for a man page but didn't take a look at the one for inet. A
good explanation.
Thanks, Kirk
