PIX 515E running v7.0 slow Site-Site VPN open original image

Hi group,



Before you all say I know I should not be running this in production but needs must.



I was just wondering if anybody had seen a problem between where the Site-to-Site VPN seems slow between PIX and CP-NG. Checed cisco.com and checkpoint.com but no results I can find.



CPU and Mem stats seem fine, beeing running debug crypto isakmp /ipsec, all looks OK, general internet broswing seems fine.



Any ideas? Thanks Jay


Hi Jay,

You may wish to investigate the Cisco PIX 515/515E Security Appliance Memory Upgrade for PIX Software v7.0

Before installing this new release, the memory on Cisco PIX 515 and

515E Security Appliances must be upgraded.

Walter,

Thanks for the answer, it seems slow on all type, i have used ping etc with the flags to check the fragmention size and all seems ok, I was just wondering if there could be a small bug in v7.0(1), I can see they have released 7.0.(4). Thanks Jason

Is it "slow" for all kinds of traffic, or only for larger packets? I'm wondering if you might be running into MTU issues?
