00:07:15 thanks! 02:01:34 Does the install program timeout? I think I'd like to read about the install process ahead of time. Can I just leave it at "choose optional system components to install", do some reading and come back later? It's a tower workstation 12:53:18 ummm can I sort top's thread view somehow? I have a list of 32 threads in a single process 12:53:32 currently they jump around, and I want to see if they're correctly being pinned to a core 12:54:14 https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/sfnNp2dP/20241129-125351.png 12:56:10 aha 12:56:23 `-To threads` does what i want 12:58:57 nope, it doesn't but the man page reads like it should 13:08:24 dch: you can hit Tab in top to switch between what you want it to prioritize when it comes to the columns 13:08:45 right, but doing `-o threads` should do that already 13:09:13 honestly I don't have much experience with top's command line options, I just use top(1) as is and vmstat(1) 15:54:34 hello, i have a dual nic in my server and i am trying to isolate a set of jails to a specific VLAN ID and was thinking.. i could further isolate this VLAN to a SPECIFIC nic port. My question to the group here, is there any considerations i have to manage with having 2 physical nics and trying to isolate a specific jail(s) to that nic over the other ones? 16:00:31 are you using a jail-manager? 16:11:02 just jmore.. a small shell script and i manage my jails manually 16:15:59 this should be possible to get to work. but that's out of my league 16:17:06 voy4g3r2: the jail doesn't care what physical interface the vlan(4) is on, so there should be no difference using 1 port or 10 ports for your vlans 16:20:12 just curious, if he does this how do interupts get balanced across all cpu cores. or are bottlenecks not an issue in this case? 16:20:32 or am i totally off on this? 16:28:21 mvee: i am not sure.. this is an 8 core cpu.. my focus is to be able to isolate my security ip cameras on property.. so people can not see the rest of my network. 16:29:12 so the jail will manage the cameras and store the videos.. isolate to the jail and a zfs dataset taht will only be accesiable by the ip cameras and the software managing it.. is the goal. just figure i have the nic port available and that would add another layer of isolation of the VLAN from the rest of the devices on the network.. through physical port isolation 16:30:42 mvee: with modern nics you usually have one rx queue per cpu per port, so with 8 cores and 2 ports, you have 16 rx queues - should make no difference in how interrupts are distributed to use multiple ports 16:33:02 and from what i have read with my routers and switches (mikrotik devices) i can also manage a lot of the heavy lifting with the switch ports.. but this is all theory 16:33:19 i have typically had my epair(s) and tap(s) all to this one physical port 16:33:52 i am hoping this lends itself to do other cool things, like isolate the backups my comptuers do no the network.. people shouln't be able to see that stuff 16:38:48 voy4g3r2: fwiw, i'm not sure using two ports is actually beneficial here, once the packets get to the switch they're all on the same switch anyway and processed based on vlan id no matter which port they're on 16:38:57 the same switch chip, i mean 16:40:25 fair enough 16:40:45 my calculations also state that these cameras will be pushing some bandwidth. 16:41:10 i just read a lot about offloading and still gathering material/data to see if this makes snese.. the snow has forced me inside and trying to keep the mind busy 16:41:53 the camera will not be here till tomorrow.. so it is a lot of just figuring it out.. the major hurdle of getting www.zoneminder.com operational in a freebsd jail was a big milestone 16:42:23 one possible reason to use another port would be that if you put *all* your jails on that port, then you can turn LRO/TSO back on on the other (non-jail) port which might improve IP performance for the host itself 16:42:53 but that's probably only a concern if you're regularly doing 10Gbps+ on that port 16:42:54 interesting.. goes on the list of use cases 16:43:13 nah.. i am hitting 10-15mbits 16:43:52 and they are gigabit ports. a hap ax3 router and a CSS105-5g-1s 16:44:27 the server is currentlyi connected to the css105. and was thinking of the OTHER empty port to use hte last port on the hap ax3 16:45:00 but i think i may hit capacity with this setup and need to invest in other switches.. just wish they didn't jump from 8 to 24 in port configuration 16:45:04 but thank you ivy for the tips 16:45:53 voy4g3r2: CRS312? that's 12 ports, although it's 10G 17:14:58 ivy: yeah that is total overkill, you are right 17:22:01 voy4g3r2, ivy thanks for the info
