[Oisf-users] hardware consideration for suricata deployment

[erik clark]

I am looking at dell M830 blades for ids gear deployment. For a 15 gig
link, per septun, looks like we would only need maybe 192 gigs of ram to
support inspection. However, these blades only support Intel x540s, and not
740s. Is the performance consideration between a 540 and a 740 such that it
is better to get stand alone gear to do inspection, rather than in a blade
form factor? Both nics support symmetric hashing at the hardware level last
I checked, in the CentOS el repo ml kernel line. Thanks!
