Actually I retract my last comment :-} Interfaces on our zettagrid platform show up as 100mbps, but interfaces on our local vsphere platform, interfaces connect at 1gbps, and btest to a local router give gb speeds :) Cheers, Mike.

Yes - ditto,
Ethernet drivers are 100mbps ;)
Cheers!

If it's anything like under XenServer, you'll be limited to 100mbps (Xenserver shows 100mbps media to the HVM guest unless they're using Citrix's drivers). Using virtio I max out around 900mbps each direction.

Whatever the reason, it is certainly a very interesting and cool development - there are a growing number of RouterOS deployments like
this,
and it will definitely be one to watch! :)
Out of interest, what level of performance should I expect if I were to deploy RouterOS on an ESX server without the vmxnet3 driver?
The use case here is as a home router - I currently use an RB1100, which routes my NBN connection with no issues, and handles routing between 3 VLANs. I often move 600-800 megabits within a VLAN, but traffic routed between VLANs is rarely more than 5-10mbps.
Not sure I want to operate my router as a VM yet - introduces various new failure modes - but am curious what the performance would look like if I were to try it. _______________________________________________ Public mailing list Public@talk.mikrotik.com.au http://talk.mikrotik.com.au/mailman/listinfo/public_talk.mikrotik.com. au
