[Click] RedHat 9 kernel and CLICK

[Charles J Gillan]

I have just installed RedHat 9 Linux on a PC and Click release
click-1.3pre1.tar.gz.

 

The userLevel program is running with the test configurations provided.

 

However, I cannot build the kernel version of Click. Further
investigation reveals that 

the RedHat 9 kernel is based on 2.4.20. 

 

I see that Click comes with a patch for only 2.4.18 kernels.

 

Can someone explain whether userLevel will be sufficient to obtain
enough performance

for a basic router configuration and or Ethernet switch configuration.
The target environment

is a university research lab network with five PCs.

 

Alternatively, is a patch available for 2.4.20 or should I rebuild with
redHat 8 which I believe to be

based on the 2.4.18 kernel.

 

Thanks,

 

Charles.
