Esxi - Mikrotik CHR 6.38.5 - Intel 10G SFP Issues

Thu Apr 27, 2017 2:15 pm

I am struggling to setup Mikrotik CHR on ESXI 6.5 with Intel 82599ES 10Gb SFP+ Adapter but its showing weird issues which i have tried to resolve since a week but i am failing in all aspects.

Issue :
When Mikrotik CHR is used with 1G Virtual NIC , everything works perfectly.
When Mikrotik CHR is used with 10G Intel 82599ES , I see vmware throwing logs of adapter reset. Error log below

Re: Esxi - Mikrotik CHR 6.38.5 - Intel 10G SFP Issues

Tue May 02, 2017 1:44 am

Use VMXNet3 as your Ethernet adapter. Support was added to CHR in 6.31.

https://mikrotik.com/download/changelogs/ (search for 6.31 or vmxnet3)

That will give you > 1gbps performance assuming the underlying infrastructure and other components can move at those speeds.

Hi,

I bough license p1 and have same problem.
Mikrotik support tell me that problem will resolve in V7.

One month spent time to try esx 5.5 sp3 without success. No more than 600mb speed.
Kernel driver from mikrotik not good enogh for gigabit....so....10gbit....

Good luck to you

How does it matter how many people running chr on esxi are you able to see?

Hi,

Please try and you will see.
Maybe I don't know but the response from support must to clarify that.

P.S. Maybe work on old server with esx installed.

Course ....with with vmware WORKSTATION should be work because the driver is from host os.

ESX use vkernel and it is totally different driver...

P.S. If you try a with more network with more vswitch scenario in ESX you will see same little problem like: vlan with vpn in some situation not working, vlan encapsulation it is not fully compatible with all vendor, driver for mikrotik work but not at full speed .......... THIS IS FOR ESX 5.5 UP2. I DON'T KNOW IF WORKS IN ESX 6.5 !!!

Yeah but that's nothing to brag about.

My CCR's battle at more than ~4Gbps (real traffic) - and I'm not the only one, there's many similar posts on this very forum. I am currently testing a CHR on ESX and it's not doing much better - at least BGP's faster though.

Not bragging about that. Just telling that chr is capable more than someone else tells here...

Re: Esxi - Mikrotik CHR 6.38.5 - Intel 10G SFP Issues

Thu May 11, 2017 7:09 pm

I run a CHR under ESXi with 10-gig interfaces.

it works well and I have no problem sustaining 8 Gig + throughputs with low CPU loads.

In my opinion, to build/configure a high-throughput CHR system, here is what I do:
- On the physical box:
1, disable all unnecessary interfaces (stuff like serial ports and printer ports and CD/floppy drives)
2, fast Xeon CPUs, with lots of processor cache
3, if I can, I prefer to disable hyper-threading
4, Fast SAS hard drives with lots of cache in the drives
5, A single 10-gig 2-port network card -and- disable all other 1-gig networks cards
6, remove/disable as many devices as possible that use interrupts.
7, when possible, never have the 10-gig network card share an interrupt with other devices.

- On the virtual hosted OS --- CHR
a, disable all unnecessary interfaces (stuff like serial ports and printer ports and CD/floppy drives)
b, use fewer virtual network interfaces - and instead use 802.1q vlans instead (if you need many many network interfaces).
c, for very-high throughput CHR systems, try to run other virtual servers on other physical ESXi servers
d, When ever possible, use only hypervisor optimized devices/drivers. ( Paravirtual VMXNET-3 network interfaces & Paravirtual SCSI controllers "VMware Paravirtual" SCSI Controller Type)

You know you have a decent build when you can btest to 127.0.0.1 at near 20-gig throughput --and-- btest between different CHRs on the same ESXi box or other physical ESXi boxes at close to 10-gig.
And - You know you have a decent build when you can sustain 8 gig to your NAS system.

What version and license level of vmware are you using?

Also, have you tested NIC’s above 10gbps? Ie: 40gbps

We are currently testing o. Esxi 6.5 using a Dell R620 with dual e5-2650L v2, 64Gb RAM, 1 x dual QSFP+ 40Gbit Nic, 1 x Quad SFP+ 10Gbit NIC and the onboard NIC with 2 x 10Gbit SFP+ and 2 x 1gbe

I have run several several VMware ESXi versions 5.5 -through- 6.5.x
My VmWare ESXi license levels are the free versions.

I have only tested the Intel 10-Gig nics. I suspect my VmWare ESXi servers ( virtaul switches and virtual hosts) may not have the horse-power to hit/hold 40 gig on a 40-gig interface ( because of CHR loopback btests to 127.0.0.1 only hitting about 20 gig ). I suspect newer faster CPUs & faster CPU memory would boost my performance.

What ever the brand/model of the physical server running VmWare ESXi , I suspect it all comes down to all of the following to produce 40-gig throughput speeds:
- CPU clock speed
- CPU cache memory ( larger is always better )
- CPU version
- Memory speed
- Interrupts (shut all non-used devices for both physical and virtual)
- little of few or no wait-states for all devices on the physical system buss
- Paravirtual device drivers (such as VMNIC3 for Ethernet interfaces)
- HyperThreading ( disabled ... )
- Number of other guest host systems running (for 40-gig, I would try running only a single guest and see what that does)
- How complex are the firewall rules and other configurations
- Delayed-ACK (I often perfer delayed_ACK = 1)
- All power management (physical and virtual machines) disabled
- If lots of disk I/O , then fast SAS or SSD drives (for SAS , I suggest lots of built-in cache)
- If my VmWare ESXI is running a remote datastore, then NFS and zfs sync disabled
- If my NAS is FreeNAS, then auto-tune and also delayed_ack with zfs sync disabled (my older FreeNAS uses 6-Gig SAS interfaces and can hold/sustain 8-Gig transfers to/from my lz4 NFS mounted datastores when performing a sequential copy (about 1/2 that when multiple R/W operations are hitting my NAS at the same time).


I suspect 40-gig throughput just might require hardware which is the best of the best

Hope this helps.
