Hello,
I wanted to know if it's possible to compile Click with SCTP options.
Best regards,
Abdul Hakeem

Hello Clickers!

we are trying to put together a testbed for running Click experiments here 
at UCLA, and I was wondering whether you could share with us the hardware 
configurations (processor, PCI bus, main memory, motherboard, network cards,

Linux kernel and Click version) that worked for you, and that resulted in 
high throughput with Click.

For example, I know that Giorgio Calarco from the University of Bologna, 
Italy, has been using the following kind of hardware to achieve loss-free 
throughput of 737 Kpackets/sec running uniprocessor Click:
- dual Intel Xeon 2.80 GHz (with HyperThreading disabled)
- Intel E7501 chipset motherboard with a 533 MHz FSB and four PCI-X slots
- four Intel 88544EI Gigabit ethernet cards, two of them plugged in 
64-bit/133MHz PCI-X slots, and two in 64-bit/100 MHz PCI-X slots
- main memory?

We'd love to know what configs worked for you, and any suggestions for 
hardware purchases you might have. Thanks so much!

nikitas
