Remove outdated information from the netperf webpage.

The netperf webpage has not been updated in quite some time. Most updates
regarding machine allocations are happening on the wiki nowadays. It does not
make sense to keep the information here, so remove the section and replace it
with a reference to the wiki instead.

The config and news section has also been largely left alone for years. Remove
it as well as it is unlikely that someone will be posting updates there any
time soon.

<p>The Netperf cluster consists of several systems interconnected using a
management network, as well as individual back-to-back gigabit ethernet
links for a test network. The following systems are available as
testing resources on a check-out basis:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><b>zoo.FreeBSD.org</b> is the front-end build and management
system. This system was donated by Sentex Communications.</p></li>
<li><p><b>elephant</b> is a dual-PIII 800MHz system with ATA disk
subsystem.</p></li>
<li><p><b>orangutan</b> is a dual-Xeon 2GHz system equipped with an
Adaptec SCSI RAID array. This system was donated by IronPort
Systems.</p></li>
<li><p><b>tiger-1</b>, <b>tiger-2</b>, and <b>tiger-3</b> are a set of
interconnected, matching dual-Xeon 3GHz systems with ATA disk
subsystems. Each has four if_em network interfaces, and these are
interconnected so that various topologies can be created.
These systems were donated by FreeBSD Systems and the FreeBSD
Foundation.</p></li>
<li><p><b>cheetah</b> is a dual core Opteron 270 system with two
2GHz CPUs each with two cores using a Tyan K8S Pro (S2882)
motherboard. The machine identifies as a quad processor machine
in dmesg. The system has SATA disk, 2GB of RAM, 1GB for each
processor, and 5 ethernet ports. fxp0 is the management port
and em0, em1, bge0 and bge1 are gigE interfaces which will
eventually connect cheetah to elephant and orangutan. This system
was donated by George Neville-Neil.</p></li>
<li><p><b>hippo</b> is a quad-processor Pentium III 500MHz system
with 50GB RAID array, donated by Sentex Communications.</p></li>
<li><p><b>camel</b> is a dual core Pentium D 3.0Ghz SMP system
with four SATA disks and two hardware crypto devices, donated by
Sentex Communications.</p></li>
<li><p><b>interlope</b> is a Celeron 2.5GHz system with two SATA
disks running SUN Solaris 10, donated by
Sentex Communications.</p></li>
<li><p><b>apc2</b>, <b>apc3</b>, and <b>apc4</b> are the remote power
consoles for the test network. These systems were donated by
Sentex Communications.</p></li>
<li><p><b>leopard1</b>, <b>leopard2</b>, and <b>leopard3</b> are
dual-core Intel systems hooked up to the 10gbps test cluster,
and use Chelsio and Myricom 10gbps cards. These systems were
donated by iXsystems.</p></li>
<li><p><b>hydra1</b> and <b>hydra2</b> are 8-core Intel systems
hooked up to the 10gbps test cluster. These systems were donated
by Google and the FreeBSD Foundation.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>The current serial port and network configuration of test systems, as
well as password information, can be found in /etc/motd on zoo. We
are currently interested in adding amd64 and em64t hardware to the
cluster.</p>

<h2>Current Configuration Notes and News</h2>
<p>A few hopefully up-to-date configuration notes that may be relevant
to users of the netperf cluster:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><b>20070727</b> - The 10gbps testbed is now being configured,
thanks to donations from iXsystems, Chelsio, Myricom, Intel, Google,
Cisco, and the FreeBSD Foundation.</p></li>

for the Netperf cluster.</p></li>
<li><p><b>20061205</b> - <b>zoo.FreeBSD.org</b> has been updated to
the most recent version of 6-STABLE.</p></li>
<li><p><b>20050624</b> - <b>cheetah</b> is now online!</p></li>
<li><p><b>20050204</b> - <b>orangutan</b> is now configured to use
PXEboot, thanks to help from Sentex.</p></li>
<li><p><b>20050203</b> - system upgrades to <b>tiger-1</b>,
<b>tiger-2</b>, and <b>tiger-3</b> have been completed -- the latest
versions of 4.x (ar0s1) and 6.x (ar0s2) are now installed.</p></li>
