[Xorp-users] Performance test

[José María Martín]

First al all, thank you for the answers

I am goint to do a data charge in a lab environment. The data will be 
multicast an unicast data flow.
Xorp is running on a Linux 2.4.25 kernel
I have different scenarios:
1. Static routing with xorp routing multicast (Pim-SM) being RP and not 
being RP. In the last case I will use bootstrap mechanism against two 
Nortel/Cisco routers.
2. OSPF routing (not xorp) and the same multicast environment.

My hardware is intel xeon 2.8 ghz 1 gb ram and a gigabit ethernet 
network card. This server is running a checkpoint firewall too.
In the first attempt the system crash ( crash = the source packets 
didn´t reach the destination machine) with 100.000 multicast packets 
flow. I am using 1.0 xorp version.

Be run grateful for your opinions and ideas

thanks in advance
