I am using EigerStein LRP boxes as endpoints to my VPN. They have been up
and running solidly for over a year, but I get poor performance
asymetrically. I used the samedisk as a template for each, so all are the
same version (kernel, modules, binaries, etc.). They are each connected to
SHAW@HOME cable, and have similar network traffic behind them.
My unscientific* tests showed consistenlty that:
NORTH PII 233 64/MB RAM
2 x DLINK 530TX (tulip driver)
Downloading from the internet at 168 KBytes/sec
SOUTH -> NORTH = ~28 KBytes/sec
NORTH -> SOUTH = ~20 KBytes/sec
eth0 TX - 1399 collisions out of 714336 total packets
SOUTH PII 233 64/MB RAM
2 x LINSYS LNE100 (tulip driver)
Downloading from the internet at 128 KBytes/sec
SOUTH -> NORTH = ~28 KBytes/sec
NORTH -> SOUTH = ~85 KBytes/sec
eth0 TX - 46 collisions out of 519391 total packets
ipsec0 TX - 3240 dropped packets out of 361037 total
* to test the speed, I just copied files and directories of various sizes
between mapped drives on each network.
Any tips appreciated.
