I use tar and ttcp for an initial transfer: On the receiving end: ttcp -l5120 -r | tar xf - On the transmitter: tar cf - . | ttcp -l5120 -t name-of-receiver Note: The files are transmitted without encryption. I easily get 110 Mbytes/sec. on a gigabit connection. If you need encryption, and your transfer is CPU limited, you should investigate which cipher to use. In my case arcfour128 is the fastest, so I use: rsync --rsh='/usr/bin/ssh -c arcfour128' ... after the initial transfer with ttcp.

Searching for a good how to pinted to this page: http://www.how2centos.com/centos-6-channel-bonding/ My question: Is this the current, good way to bond the 4 ports? The other question: What should I set on the cisco switch for the Port-channel options? As far as I understand for performance and redundancy I will use LACP and balance-alb. The switches are 6500 VSS so they should act as "one physical device" as required by LACP. thanks for any suggestion and comments .

If you had a DB9 serial port I'd say you'll really want a null modem cable to interface with the device (but it doesn't) - hopefully you know or have the cable necessary to talk to it via the RJ-45 console. You may consider using CentOS 5 for the reason below. Does your appliance's CPU support PAE? Starting with CentOS 6, the i686 kernels have PAE enabled. If you need one without PAE you'll have to compile it yourself. Not a huge deal, but certainly not as simple. Your best bet in any instance (CentOS 5 or 6) is to build the OS on another piece of hardware or a VM and copy it over to your CF card. There are a few items you'll want to do to reduce writes to your CF card and tune it for the embedded hardware [0]. Hope this helps!
