Hello I'm in a six months placement at Gitoyen http://www.gitoyen.net/ (a small opensource-based LIR)
Gitoyen is a Local Internet Registry. The current routing solution is based on Linux with Quagga running OSPF and BGP. All routers runs Linux from USB flash drives but we think that FreeBSD could be much better with OpenOSPFD and OpenBGPD. My mission at Gitoyen is to be able to route about 2Gbps at 190 kilo packets per second using opensource softwares... Can you give me some advices on IP accounting? It must be lightweight to let openbgpd working fluently. If informations could be retrieved by snmp it would be great too. I found two ways of doing this: using pf or netgraph (particularly the ports ipaccounting_ng) so the questions are: - Is there a best way to do this? - Wich solution is the "lightest" for a router? - Is there a other ways to do IP accounting? Thanks for your help, Regards, Vincent Mialon
