Especially given that IEEE 802.3dj is working on 1.6T / 1600G, and is expected to publish the final spec in Summer/Autumn 2026:

Currently these interfaces are only on switches, but there are already NICs at 800G (P1800GO, Thor Ultra, ConnectX-8/9), so if you LACP/LAGG two together your bond is at 1600G.
- arsome 7mo agoIf you're moving those kind of speeds you're probably not doing packet filtering in software.
- throw0101d 7mo agoBut you may be using Unix-y software to manage the interfaces and do offload programming: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_Packet_Processing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_Packet_Processing * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptm9h-Lf0gg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptm9h-Lf0gg ("VPP: A 1Tbps+ router with a single IPv4 address") * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulus_Networks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulus_Networks
- himata4113 7mo agoI use VPP and handle bonded speeds of 200gbit. Not that far fetched to also do this at 1000gbit.
- mulmen 7mo agoProbably? But if you are then you’re certainly not using OpenBSD.
