• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    HAProxy SNI SSL Question...

    if one client works, but another doesn't, I would assume the issue is the non-working client.

    Is using S/MIME encryption and MD5 an acceptable alternative to SFTP xfer?

    md5 isn't encryption, it is a hash, and hashes generally can't be reversed.

    Load balancing, F5, Cisco. other options

    F5 is pretty much the top name in load balancing. My company has several sets of BigIP LTM units, doing load balancing for a fairly large ($500m/yr) ecomm company. They are VERY stable, and fairly easy to use/setup.

    Need 100 gb/sec firewall... suggestions?

    Also, perhaps you should investigate being able to scale outwards... a design of 10 firewalls that each do 10Gb/sec is much easier to scale than 1 that does 100.

    Which SFP+ transceiver are you using with Intel 10GbE cards?

    We've been using the Cisco twinax cables for nearly all of our 10G; works great.

    BGP questions

    in BGP, active is bad; it means it is actively trying to establish a connection, but can't. Generally speaking, eBGP (external BGP) requires the other side to be one-hop away, as a security mechanism; this could definitely cause you problems (unless the BGP config for the peer specifies it is...

    high packet loss despite good signals

    On your PC, start three cmd prompts, and in each, ping a different target (your default gateway on your LAN, your 2nd hop, your 3rd hop) and see where the latency/loss is coming from. If you have zero loss to your gateway, and zero loss to your 2nd hop, but loss to the 3rd hop, you know the...

    GNS3 problems

    For what it is worth, I have GNS3 0.7.4 running perfectly on a Win7 Ultimate 64-bit, with zero problems. I usually have between 4 to 8 routers running at a time. I believe it is straight out of the box install, no modifications needed. I only use c3640-ik9s-mz.123-26.bin for all my routers.

    Cisco ASA

    TCP/443 is for the AnyConnect (SSL-based) VPN; the more traditional VPN is IPSec-based, which doesn't use TCP/443. I would think it would work, assuming whatever device is in front of the ASA isn't munging the packets.

    LAN party network setup

    The way DHCP works is the client boots up and sends a packet to 255.255.255.255 (the broadcast address) asking for any DHCP servers to give it an IP. The DHCP server then replies to the client's MAC address (they don't have a valid address yet), so they have to be in the same subnet (usually)...

    Jumbo frames trash NIC

    I know this is trivial, but have you made sure you're running the latest NIC drivers on both NICs? This sounds very much like a bug in something.

    iperf test on cat5e Gb network, 177Mbits/sec...Why?

    iperf doesn't use your hdd; mostly network with a little bit of CPU. what's the latency between devices? You can try increasing your TCP window size; when I do iperf test I usually bump it up to 64k or so (iperf -w 64k) C:\>iperf -w 65k -c 192.168.220.87...

    Cisco Router - Max TCP Sessions?

    I don't know if this is even possible; a traditional router doesn't keep track of sessions, as it isn't stateful.
