[Question] n2isk performance issue and "--index-tunnel-content" GRE index support? #12

Closed wayne-genie closed 5 years ago

Hi,

We are planning to have n2disk(10G) deployed for our customer site. Two questions we are having are:

  1. Is it suitable to have both nProbe and n2disk install and function in one server appliance? If yes, what would the minimum hardware spec you recommend?

  2. Does the n2disk parameter --index-tunnel-content support GRE outer/inner IP index?

Please advise. Thank you.

  1. if you use PF_RING ZC drivers, access to the interface is exclusive, thus you cannot run both n2disk and nProbe at the same time. One option is running zbalance_ipc to capture from the interface and forward the traffic to both n2disk and nProbe.
  2. yes GRE is supported
