Hello,
Need some suggestions on these settings. My other sites I currently use:
fragment 1200;mssfix
This site is as follows:
Colocate:
vmware esxi 5.5
pfsense 2.1 virtualized
1 core X5650
1GB memory
100Mb symmetrical fiber
Site:
pfsense 2.1
Alix 2C
25Mb download
2.5Mb upload
Trying to pull down from the colocate to site, either I get timeouts to the pfsense at colocate or extremely high pings. Transfer rates are extremely slow as well.
MTU-Test on both sides says MTU is 1500, so I have tried this:
fragment 1500;mssfix
With not much success. Also it varies upon documentation but some specify mssfix only needs to be on one side. I have tried using it on one or either without success. Tried using fragment 1200, 1300, 1400 and 1500. Also tried various mssfix parameters I found on the web.
AI think I've narrowed it down to the mssfix setting as MTU test confirms it's 1500.
My other tunnels which are colocated out of the same data center had same issue.
Doing fragment 1200;mssfix fixed them. I get consistent latency and full download speeds from thedate center to sites.
The pfsense at this site is also doing dhcp and unbound dns.
