Speed from behind the xenserver is normal.
There is definitely something wrong with 2.2 under XenServer 6.2. I’m seeing exactly the same thing as Morten. To pfSense is fine. Through pfSense is horrible. 2.1.5 is fine but represents re adapters, not xn. I have not tried from pfSense to a VM on the same vswitch yet. Only through pfSense 2.2 to the WAN. _______________________________________________ List mailing list List@lists.pfsense.org https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
