![]() Taking this in count i think the virtualization path is the smartest one to board x86 platforms In the near future virtualization features are closing the gap on latency making it perfect for networking implementations Using virtualization that task is taken by hypervisor developer keeping routeros image as light as it has always been My question about hardware router in 1U rackmount formfactorĪs far as i understand mikrotik had take the virtualization path on x86 to avoid dealing with the variety of hardware available on x86 platforms, integrating drivers and certifying hardware working with routeros. A btest to 127.0.0.1 on a mikrotik anything motherboard will not even come close to the maximum 元 speeds you may need. A two port 10-gig per port router should able to layer 3 process up to 40 gig per second. Lets say you need a two port 10-gig Ethernet router/firewall device. A btest to the 127.0.0.1 loopback will not even come close to the calculated throughput needed.Īnother example of a seriously underpowered motherboard. Example - lets say a board has 3 gig Ethernet ports and a 3x3 mimo NV2 wireless card - your math should result somewhere higher than 7 gig. You will quickly discover you are not even be close to being able to route at network speed to all ports. Now perform a speedtest to your loopback 127.0.0.1 using the tools-bandwidth test with UDP/both. ![]() Multiply the number of Ethernet ports you have by the maximum speed of each port then multiply this number by 2 (the 2 is for full duplex) then add the maximum speeds of your wireless - now you have a speed your CPU needs to be able to handle. A simple test to check if your router is under-powered. Even on a simple less than 10 k NV2 WDS AC mimo link, it is impossible to get much above 400 meg wireless throughput without driving the CPU up above 50 percent or much higher. ![]() ![]() I have not found a Mikrotik product that can route and/or firewall and/or bridge and/or NAT and/or VPN and/or Tunnel EoIP all ports at the same time. Please don't get me wrong, but I feel Mikrotik uses whimpy / slow / weak / underpowered CPUs in most of their motherboards. YUP - That's been my beef for several years now. Why Mikrotik does not produce the routers on x86 processors?ĭual-core Skylake can handle 10Gbit/s aes-gcm ipsec tunnel (CCR cannot). ![]()
