Hardware and Performance / Re: PC Engines APU2 1Gbit traffic not achievable
« on: December 15, 2020, 06:21:00 pm »
Good evening!
I have an apu2 with 4 NICs and 1000 MBit/s from my ISP (Cable-Modem - bridge mode - opnsense/apu2). I get ~ 650 MBit/s, which gives a gap of ~ 250 MBit/s i pay, but i don't get...
My thoughts to have apu2 + opnsense = 1000 MBit/s:
Would this solve the problem or do i have an error in reasoning?
Maybe someone tested in this direction?

My thoughts to have apu2 + opnsense = 1000 MBit/s:
- use a switch with link aggregation for - let's say - 2 ports for WAN and another 2 ports for LAN
- Have this two trunks each in a different vlan on that switch, VLAN 1 = LAN, VLAN 2 = WAN
- create a lagg "lagg0" with 2 ports (igb2 + igb3) on opnsens' side and assign the lagg to "WAN"
- do the same for "lagg1" with igb0 + igb1, assign to "LAN"
- connect the bridge-mode-cable-modem to another port at the switch with configured VLAN 2 (WAN)
- connect all LAN CLients to ports with VLAN 1 (LAN)
Would this solve the problem or do i have an error in reasoning?
