We have recently upgraded from Netware 4.11 with clients running IPX to Netware 6.0 with clients running IP on our Cisco Infrastructure. Since the upgrade have noticed a considerable degradation in performance over WAN links (10Mb Half Duplex). The degradation relates to the increase in time when opening files on NW 6.0 servers that reside on the LAN. Workstations on the LAN have no such issues. My question is - Does anyone know the possible cause of the degradation ?.
Have you looked at the WAN links for errors , utilization etc... Don't know what you have on each end of the WAN link , is it possible to make the WAN link at least 10/full on each end . Doesn't take much to fill a 10/half collision domain .
