Application is using the output from the scp -

examples are all from old Solaris 8 server:

to 1st interface on old solaris 8 server with tcp_host_param settings set higher

Code:

snoop5.out                            |  866MB | 1.1MB/s |TOC: 00:13:14 | 100%

to 2nd interface on old solaris 8 server with no special tcp_host_param set up

Code:

snoop5.out                            |  866MB | 756kB/s |TOC: 00:19:32 | 100%

to new server (solaris 10) with tcp_host_param settings set higher

Code:

snoop5.out                            |  866MB | 413kB/s |TOC: 00:35:48 | 100%

So, they are looking to get the solaris 10 to have the same "speed" as they see on the old solaris 8 server.
