SG-2100 suricata - good performance?
-
Has anyone here had experience running Suricata on a SG-2100?
I'm thinking of running and tweaking suricata but from some posts I've seen on these forums/other sites some say the 2100 is not good enough for Suricata and that it will throttle the system?
Anyone have any experience using it on the 2100?

@worldhopp I would say it's highly dependent on your Internet speed. If you look at the specs Suricata/Snort is going to drop speeds from the listed numbers. Just running IDS isn't an issue as we have set it up on multiple locations, but not at 1 Gbps download for example.

Any system will have it's throughput reduced by Suricata or Snort. What matters is if that reduced level is still higher than your available WAN bandwidth.
It's also very hard to put any definitive numbers on it because performance can vary wildly depending on what signatures you have loaded and the detection engine settings.Steve
