hi, all,
I have a real world problem that I am scratching my head to find the root
cause. We have a local data center at site A and a remote backup server at
site B, site A and site B has its own service provider, the connection
bandwidth is well above 50M in either site, traffic will traverse a
GRE/IPsec tunnel which is configured between two 2800 routers, both routers
have hardware accelerated IPSec encryption/decrytion module installed.
It is interesting that traffic from site A to site B is extremely slow,
performance is only around 10s packets/second, but FTP transferring data
from site B to site A is reasonably fast, which is around 8Mb/sec. I am
pretty sure service provider of site A is not rate limiting incoming traffic
(even it does, noway they will rate limit to 10s packets/sec). What could be
the root cause of such poor performance, any server experts here can give me
a clue?
Thanks,
Jian
