Its a pretty solid way to go. We use things like this in our commercial offerings. Cheers, -matt On Fri, Jul 23, 2010 at 10:46 AM, Pedro Marinho <pppmarinho () gmail com> wrote:
Hello gentlemen, I donĀ“t know much about hardware but i want to ask if it is possible to use VHDL and a development kit like this http://www.xilinx.com/products/devkits/EK-V6-CONN-G.htm to implement some of the snort logic and make things go super faster. I was wondering if it is possible to improve performance by implementing in hardware. My question is if you use a FPGA fisically connected at a network card could be the answer or another approuch to solve performance issues in IDS technology this days instead of multithread or GPU usage? ps: sorry if it is a stupid idea newbie here.. => ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
