do you mean this netmap: info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/netmap? – Serge Sep 23 '12 at 15:53
Yes I mean the same. I was trying to install of Fedora 12. It is giving several errors like this. Please help me out. – John Elf Sep 23 '12 at 16:50
Also if you have some source code for Linux with some working instructions, that would be great. – John Elf Sep 23 '12 at 16:55
I asked to confirm that I got correctly what netmap you are going to install. Presently I have no possibility to try, so I cant help you with it. But could you please tell me what is your final goal? – Serge Sep 23 '12 at 16:56
It's to have maximum transmission of tx of pcap in Intel alike cards. My target is to achieve near line rate with ~512 byte packets. I liked DNA but that's a little costlier. – John Elf Sep 23 '12 at 17:04
