Hi list,

Current server I have with nprobe has one quad-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU
E5420@ 2.50GHz. I want to fit an Intel x520 on it to receive a 10Gb SPAN
and generate Netflow v9 from it to another machine.

I need your experience on this one... can you please confirm by your
experience:
1 - Will the processor handle the load?
2 - Server has PCIe 1.0. Am I right to assume the X520 is backward
compatible?
3 - Is PCIe x8 2GB/s enough for 10Gb RX  only?

Thank you for you experience sharing,

Regardss,
Marco
