Has anyone done any serious performance testing of
Ethereal as regards network capture performance?
I'm trying to evaluate performance by capturing a
gigabit Ethernet link with this configuration :
• OS Linux Debian
• Pentium 4 processor
• 2 GB memory
• Ethernet card : Intel 1000 CT
I need to monitor a 600 Mbits/s link but actually, I
can’t capture more than 230 Mbits/s without dropping
packets.
What are the important parameters (hardware, OS…) in
the aim to monitor a full gigablt link.
Thanks a lot !
