Hi All,
I have two 3550EMI's connected via a 10Mb Full duplex crossover, the
link is a 802.1q trunk and I only have about four VLANS running. When
I do an FTP of a 10Mb binary file between two hosts one on each switch
in different VLANS I get file transfer speeds of about 50KBs. If I
put the hosts on the same 3550 I get transfer speeds of about 85KBs,
CEF is enabled but either way I would expect to get transfer speeds
much greater than those I am getting.
The 3550 has a 8.8Gbps switch fabric and a throughput of 4.4Gbps can
anyone explain to me why this is happening? I don't think there is a
problem with the switches or the hosts but get the impression I am
missing a fundamental aspect of switching.
Many Thanks,
Wayne
