I ran some x86 mikrotik boxes in the past and the nics were indeed the issue we had.
Which brand name fiber cards (sfp+ and higher) would you recommend that is 100% compatible with Mikrotik? Also running CHR in Vsphere also is an option. Anyone comment on that sort of performance? -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect Telecommunications http://www.wavedirect.net (519)737-WAVE (9283) From: "af" <af@af.afmug.com> To: "af" <af@af.afmug.com> Cc: "Dennis Burgess" <dmburg...@linktechs.net> Sent: Tuesday, May 12, 2020 3:08:32 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] CCR2004 coming out We have some PR2200s still in stock, dual 4 core Xeons.
