* Splynx (v1.3+)
## System Requirements
* VM or physical server. Physical server will have higher throughput (XDP vs generic XDP).
* One management network interface, completely separate from the traffic shaping interfaces. Usually this would be the Ethernet interface built in to the motherboard.
* Dedicated Network Interface Card
* VM or physical server
* For VMs, NIC passthrough is required for optimal throughput and latency (XDP vs generic XDP). Using Virtio / bridging is much slower than NIC passthrough. Virtio / bridging should not be used for large amounts of traffic.
### CPU
* 2 or more CPU cores
* NIC must have 2 or more interfaces for traffic shaping.
* NIC must have multiple TX/RX transmit queues. [Here's how to check from the command line](https://serverfault.com/questions/772380/how-to-tell-if-nic-has-multiqueue-enabled).
* A CPU with solid [single-thread performance](https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html) within your budget.
* For 10G+ throughput on a budget, cosnider the [AMD Ryzen 9 5900X](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/amd-ryzen-9-5900x-4th-gen-12-core-24-threads-unlocked-desktop-processor-without-cooler/6438942.p?skuId=6438942) or [Intel Core i7-12700KF](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/intel-core-i7-12700kf-desktop-processor-12-8p-4e-cores-up-to-5-0-ghz-unlocked-lga1700-600-series-chipset-125w/6483674.p?skuId=6483674)
* Recommended CPU cores assuming [single thread](https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html) performance of 2700 or more:
| Throughput | CPU Cores |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| 1 Gbps | 4 |
| 5 Gbps | 8 |
| 10 Gbps | 12 |
| 20 Gbps | 16 |
### Memory
* Mimumum RAM = 2 + (0.002 x Subscriber Count) GB
* Recommended RAM:
| Subscribers | RAM |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| 100 | 4 GB |
| 1,000 | 8 GB |
| 5,000 | 16 GB |
| 10,000 | 32 GB |
### Network Interfaces
* One management network interface, completely separate from the traffic shaping interfaces. Usually this would be the Ethernet interface built in to the motherboard.
* Dedicated Network Interface Card for Shaping Interfaces
* NIC must have 2 or more interfaces for traffic shaping.
* NIC must have multiple TX/RX transmit queues. [Here's how to check from the command line](https://serverfault.com/questions/772380/how-to-tell-if-nic-has-multiqueue-enabled).
* Known supported cards:
* [NVIDIA Mellanox MCX512A-ACAT](https://www.fs.com/products/119649.html)
* [Intel X710](https://www.fs.com/products/75600.html)
* Intel X520
* [Ubuntu Server 22.04](https://ubuntu.com/download/server) or above. All guides assume Ubuntu Server. Ubuntu Desktop is not recommended as it uses NetworkManager instead of Netplan. Kernel version 5.15 or above
* Python 3, PIP, and some modules (listed in respective guides).
* Choose a CPU with solid [single-thread performance](https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html) within your budget.
* Recommendations for 10G+ throughput on a budget:
* [AMD Ryzen 9 5900X](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/amd-ryzen-9-5900x-4th-gen-12-core-24-threads-unlocked-desktop-processor-without-cooler/6438942.p?skuId=6438942)
* [Intel Core i7-12700KF](https://www.bestbuy.com/site/intel-core-i7-12700kf-desktop-processor-12-8p-4e-cores-up-to-5-0-ghz-unlocked-lga1700-600-series-chipset-125w/6483674.p?skuId=6483674)
