Hardware Requirements

Netris Controller

We recommend two Ubuntu 24.04 servers with the below specs. Netris controller can also run on other Linux OSes or on a shared Kubernetes cluster.

Use Case CPU Cores RAM SSD/NVME Network
Leaf/Spine 1-30 switches 4 32 GB 300 GB 2x 1GbE+ NIC
Leaf/Spine 30-100 switches 8 32 GB 600 GB 2x 1GbE+ NIC
Leaf/Spine 100-300 switches 16 64 GB 1 TB 2x 10GbE+ NIC
Leaf/Spine 300+ switches 32 128 GB 2 TB 2x 10GbE+ NIC
Spectrum-X 1-8 SUs 16 64 GB 1 TB 2x 10GbE+ NIC
Spectrum-X 16-32 SUs 32 128 GB 2 TB 2x 10GbE+ NIC
Spectrum-X 32+ SUs 64 256 GB 10 TB 2x 10GbE+ NIC

Netris SoftGate HS (The Horizontally Scalable version)

A minimum of 4 dedicated servers are required for an HA (highly available) active-active SoftGate HS cluster. Two SoftGates will forward stateful traffic (SNAT), and two others will forward the stateless traffic (DNAT, 1:1 NAT, Layer-4 Load Balancing, etc.) Each group (stateful and stateless) can be scaled horizontally by deploying more servers as CPU & RAM utilization necessitates.

Server specs:

  Minimum Recommended
CPU (Modern Intel/AMD X86) 16 Cores 32 Cores
RAM 128 GB 256 GB
NIC prod 2x 10GbE 2x 25GbE
NIC OOB 1x 1GbE 1x 1GbE
Disk 300 GB 300 GB
OS Ubuntu 24.04 Ubuntu 24.04
