what i never understood is why run acl and accounting on the same box and kill your network? run one box for acl building and another on a span (monitor port) to do accounting on the site. For your span port, do both RX/TX so you can see bi-directional and since this is done on the network layer, you will not have as much latency... maybe 10%, if even that. -- Payam Tarverdyan Chychi Network Security Specialist / Network Engineer _______________________________________________ freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ipfw-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
