This is a known problem with netgraph tunnels. -- Totus tuus, Glebius.

I am not sure what it is, so I do a search in Google and find More typical problem than TCP window size is Ethernet connection itself, for example one side thinks it has 100 Mb/s half duplex and the second side thinks that it has 100 Mb/s full duplex, which results in speeds around 10 - 100 KB/s. -- Rudolf Cejka http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/~cejkar Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information Technology Bozetechova 2, 612 66 Brno, Czech Republic ___ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Adding Proprietary Link Speed to sys/net/if_media.h
I'm working on improving the fiber support for the bce driver. One of the devices supported by the driver (the 5708) supports a 2.5G mode which is negotiated through next pages operations during normal auto negotiation. The mechanism for negotiating this speed uses standards based mechanisms, but the final speed is currently only supported on Broadcom switches and controllers. Since this speed is really intended for blade enclosures that's normally not a problem but since I need to modify sys/net/if_media.h to create a new media type I wanted to see if there were any strong objections to such a change. The media type will also be supported on the 5709, a forth-coming controller which will also support 2.5G operation, so the media type won't be limited to a single controller, though it may never be supported outside of Broadcom products.
