871W significantly drops speed on WAN int as soon as ZBF is on

vlitovchenko
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

As soon as I add the interfaces of the router to security zones it significantly drops speed on WAN interface, below 1  Mbs. I noted this because I wasn't able to watch youtube. Moreover the bandwidth test from speedtest.net hangs and doesn't come to a result. Here below is the diagnostic example while doing that test. The question is what is going on? I have two iPhones and three computers in my network, that's it. My ISP bandwidth is 10 Mbs, so is this the router hardware limitations, or kind of malfunction or some misconfiguration down here? What could be done here?

Thanks!

That is a known fact. Not a big problem considering that ZBFW doesn't really add any real secuirty, as one has NAT already, so just remove it.

Hi,

Is there any possibility to do http filtering without using ZBF?

Yes there is :  you can use NBAR   http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122t/122t8/dtnbarad.htm

Thanks for the replay Paolo,

it wasn't known fact for me though. So your replay means that this is hardware limitations, and nothing can be done here apart from refusing ZBF. What about guides that describe such a configuration? Here's the example:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5855/products_configuration_example09186a0080ab7073.shtml

They all are not supposed to be implemented, aren't they? Feeling myself kind a cheated. Anyway. I still need to be able to block some http sites.

Tanks in advance.
