RED to RED UTM Throughput? Only achieving 5meg.

John,

is the compression enabled? How did you test the throughput?

Give us more information.

Thanks

Im going by the Interface speeds on the main page.

Compression is enabled but i only seem to get 5meg both ways with a RED site to site VPN

Thanks

JK

John,

can you disable the compression and try again?

Also what tool are you using to measure the bandwidth?

Thanks

tried with compression on and off.

The UTM dash says 5meg & task man never shows over 6meg with compression.

Sorry i put this in wrong forum should be in UTM thread.

I will move the thread to UTM Forum.

Thanks,

So any idea why im not getting more than 5meg on the WAN side of the RED vpn?

Im only using the dashboard for speed monitoring but found its pretty accurate, task manager on the machine collaborates it.

I get 5meg without compression and 5meg on the UTM & 6 meg on the machine with compression.

I know it should be faster as Remote Access SSL VPN can utilise the full bandwidth of the WAN.

What internet connection type is your client side?

What are the interface settings for the RED interface?

Fibre, 27meg down 7 up.

Red interface has same MTU as WAN.

if you include the overhead, 5Mbit RED on a 7Mbit Upload is fine. It will also depend on the Routing between the WAN Endpoints on how much traffic you will be able to push through RED.

Compression only works within packets so you won't see that much extra bandwidth.
