inter-vlan routing slow performance (3750)

nmcfadye
Level 1
Level 1

I have a 3750 configured to do inter-vlan routing. There are 4 vlans.

when do a sftp file transfer from hostA on vlan3 to a hostB on vlan2 I only get about 1000kB/sec to 2000kB/sec.

the hosts are connected on downstream 2950 switches on the appropriate vlans.

I am not trunking the vlans, I am using separate ports to connect each vlan back to the 3750

I have some access lists on the vlan interfaces but I see no improvement in transfer rates even when I remove them.

All hosts are connected at 100mbit or 1gigbit.

What is causing the slow performance?

This is a known issue. Please add the commands:

mls qos queue-set output 1 threshold 2 40 400 100 400

mls qos queue-set output 1 buffers 15 45 20 20

Good luck.

that did not help

One more thing, add the global command 'sdm prefer routing' and reload the cat3750. If it works, you owe me a diet soft drink!

that did not help either
