I setup a new server last night and we had some odd
issues transferring data to it from another server.
It's a 5.2.1 RC2 server (it also happens on my server
at home).
the if driver is em0. If i do the following command:
ifconfig em0 media auto
I get (between servers) up around 10MB/s
if i force the setting to:
ifconfig em0 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
(which is what it autosenses at) I get (max) 6Kb/s
Any reason why it would do this? I've ran 4.x fine
forcing the media/media opt, but under 5.x i get
horrible speeds.
nice speeds:
em0:
flags=9843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK0,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500
options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast
x.x.x.255
ether 00:30:48:28:ff:e2
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX
<full-duplex>)
status: active
poor speeds:
em0:
flags=9843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK0,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500
options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast
x.x.x.255
ether 00:30:48:28:ff:e2
media: Ethernet 100baseTX <full-duplex>
status: active
