Speed through UTM 9

Claus BrochChristensen

Hi,

I just upgraded my external internet connection to 300 Mbit. I am running UTM in an elderly PC with 3 Gbit nics.

I verified speed directly on the connection, I verified all cables and nics to support and run gigabit.

My issue is, that even on cable connections, as soon as I go through the UTM, I cannot reach more than 80-90 Mbits. I cannot find any logs to indicate the limitations. 

An possible explanation would be, that nics are not running at Gbit - even though they support it (Intel 82541 Gbit adapter). Can that be verified somewhere in UTM logs?

 

Any suggestions / ideas / anything? Where to look?

 

Best regards

Claus, DK

    You can't predict real-world performance based on any manufacturer's figures.  Since there's no world-wide government regulation in place, the rule is "under ideal conditions, when this is the only thing being measured and everything else is off, how fast can we make this go?"

    Also, since Snort is single-threaded, you will want to run speed tests on two or more devices to see what the total throughput really is.

    Cheers - Bob
