Follow links to use NDT and NPAD.

PCI-Extended Ethernet controller: MYRICOM Inc. Myri-10G Dual-Protocol
NIC (10G-PCIE-8A)
1 GB RAM
Dual Core Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.20GHz Stepping 4  cache size     
: 1024 KB (12,800 BogoMIPS)
MB is an Intel Chipset

I have seen it do 8 Gbps locally, 6 Gbps and change to the mainland.

Myri seems to be well received, it's the answer I got after asking
similar questions.

The box was laying around, I didn't spec and buy for this, but it does OK.

If you're not running GUIs and SQL servers on the box, the 1 GB RAM
doesn't seem to be restrictive .
