NetFPGA Cluster (nfc) Overview
A cluster of 40 1U, rack-mounted PCs has been built and deployed at the Gates Building Machine Room at Stanford University.
Each machine is equipped with a NetFPGA that provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports. Each host PC also provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the motherboard. In total, the cluster has thge capacity to process 40*4 = 160 Gbps of traffic with the NetFPGAs and another 40*2 = 80 Gbps with the host CPUs providing a total of 160+80=240 Gigabits/second of data processing.
Diagrams
Keyboard/Video/Mouse (nfcKVMs)
- KVM-over-IP is avaiable for each machine in the cluster to allow console access to the machines
Power Monitoring and Control
- Every machine can be independently powered on, off, or reset using remote power control systems.
nfcHosts
- Each PC has a NetFPGA with quad-port, Gigabit Ethernet providing interfaces:
- Each PC has two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Motherboard. One interface (eth1) is used for Management (M), while the other is used for Data Processing (D)
- nfcM# on eth1
- nfcD# on eth2
Ethernet
- 48-port Gigabit Ethernet switches are used to interconnect all network ports
- Ethernet configuration in Rack 2, nfc27..40
- Host Computers
- Name (nfcM#.stanford.edu) - IP address of eth1 - Mac addresses of eth1 - Project - Contact
