Re: FTP and file transfer speeds

Chad,
Can't tell why just yet but this is your problem: (Snipped from the DMZ interface statistics) 

     Received 2900311 broadcasts, 124672 runts, 0 giants
     3198558 input errors, 695102 CRC, 2502959 frame, 497 overrun, 695102
ignored, 0 abort
What is the device on the DMZ side of the PIX? The connected between that device (hopefully another switch) and the PIX is not happy. Over 3 million errors and since they are splattered amongst CRC, Frame, Overrun, and 'Ignored' it's likely a bad cable, bad port, or bad device on that end. It COULD be a bad PIX port but I've not had any of those fail. 

  I'd start there!

Larry (and others who are interested),

From what I can see here, it looks like the PIX interfaces are all set to
100/full (output of command is below).  As far as the switch, it is a
Netgear FS116 and only seems to work in an auto/auto mode (can't see a way
to configure it specifically to 100/full).  The connection lights for those
ports on the Netgear switch are showing 100/full.  Here are some stats i've
done showing network retransmits from the 3 involved iSeries boxes
before/after the hub was changed for the switch.  I can see the retransmit
ratio getting better for those interfaces, but the transfer speed didn't
change much.  The box WNDEV has 2 physical interfaces (one cabled to inside
and one cabled to DMZ).  The box WNDOM has 1 physical interface cabled to
DMZ.  The box WNPRD has 1 interface cabled to inside.




Result of firewall command: "show interface"
