Benchmark CPU performance

Build CoreMark
For x86 platform:
[ ] # make compile XCFLAGS="-g -DMULTITHREAD=8 -DUSE_FORK=1 -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1"

[ ] # make compile XCFLAGS="-g -DMULTITHREAD=4 -DUSE_FORK=1 -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1"

[ ] # make compile XCFLAGS="-g -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1"

For ARM platform:
[ ] # make compile CC=arm-linux-gcc XCFLAGS="-g -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1"

Execute CoreMark
[ ]# ./coremark.exe  0x0 0x0 0x66 0 7 1 2000

IPv6 over IPv4

IPv6 tunneling provides a way to encapsulate IPv6 packets into IPv4 packets. That can be used to connect two IPv6 networks over an IPv4-only path.

SIT
This SIT driver implements encapsulation of IPv6 into IPv4 packets, so it can provide IPv6 service over the IPv4 network environment.

Setup and Configuration Script

ipv6_sit_linux.sh

6RD

Setup and Configuration Script

IPv6 NAT

Why IPv6 NAT

Load Balancing

Multi-homing (Uplink Balance, Failover)

NAT is demanded by enterprises for multi-homing.
Multi-homing is a situation that describes a single computer host that makes use of several IP addresses associated with various connected networks. Within this scenario, the multihomed computer host is physically linked to a variety of data connections or ports. These connections or ports may all be associated with the same network or with a variety of different networks. Depending on the exact configuration, multi-homing may allow a computer host to function as an IP router.
