Hi, all,I have a small experimental network, using one Cisco7204VXR(NPE400) router and one Cisco2950switch. The router has one FE port, so I created several virtual FE on it and connected to the switch.. The network is isolated from any other LAN/WAN...
Hi, In past few years, some people were working on developing algorithms and schemes to reducing power consumption of network device. I'm wondering, whether any of the proposed schemes has been realized on any cisco routers/switches? If it does, can ...
Hi,The document says 2610XM CPU have ability of handling 25000packets/sec. However, in my experiment system, when the CPU usage reaches 90%, I can only observe, by "show interfaces", 5 minutes input rate 1965000 bits/sec, 2611 packets/sec and 5 minut...
Hi, allI have an experiment system consist of a 2610XM, a catalyst2950, several clients and one Linux server. Those clients are running programs that keep sending large amount of http requests(may up to one or two thousands per second) to the server....
Hi, all,I have a subnet consist of a 2610XM router, a catalyst 2950(24 port). Since my router has only one FE port, it's configured as below:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!interface FastEthernet0/0 description CONNECTION TO CISCO_SW...
Hi Rick,Thanks for your help.Would you please tell me a little bit more about your suspicion? How can I detect that the problem does come from router hardware/software? Is there a command set I can use to verify your guess?And by the way, I kept trac...
Thanks for your help, Rick.I attached my switch configuration and "show int" result for both router and switch to this post. The input/output rate is unreasonably low--I'm really running out of idea what's going on.Thanks again.Joe
Thanks a lot for your reply, Mikael.I checked the switch config, every port is running on "full duplex" mode; and I also checked NIC of each involved computer, all of them are running on "full duplex" mode.You are right, I read from some doc said "bi...
Hi, Giuseppe,Thanks for the reply. Yes, routers usually cannot sleep. However, since not all components work all the time, it's not necessary to keep all parts of the router fully worked. For example, some people propose to put some router line cards...
Thanks to all of you.It turned out that the router was the bottleneck. We borrow a 7204-NPE-G1 router today. Without any other changes to the experiment system, the performance boost up more than 3 times of the original while the CPU running at 10%! ...
