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).
