Extremely low throughput between AIX 7.2 and RHEL Maipo
I am currently having problems with AIX and network performance.
I have an AIX 7.2 on-premises and a Linux with RH 7.7 Maipo in Google Cloud. Between the 2 machines I have a guaranteed bandwith of 1 Gbit/s.
Firstly I started with a trivial traceroute: what I noticed is that after some hops appears the following error "fragmentation required, trying new MTU=1492". Basically this appears 4 times: MTU changes from the starting 1500 to 1492, then to 1480, then to 1472 and finally to 1006. This brings also a very very low throughput (around 16 Mbit/s). Do you have any idea of what's going on? If I try the same experiment from a Linux machine I don't get this issue and the throughtput is quite good (around 320 Mbit/sec).
Could you help me please? Thank you

As a rule of thumb in doing calculations, what figure would you use in Mbytes/sec? I know the answer varies grealty on the topolgy of the network but I wonde what newteok engineers use a rough rule of thumb?

Hi,
I'm able to migrate UNIX users/groups from Solaris to AIX (with same password using 13-char encrypted password from shadow file) but no luck with RHEL 5 to AIX.
I see encrypted password in RHEL 5 is bit lengthier than 13-char. Is there any way to convert encrypted password such that same... (1 Reply)

ipsec_tncfg
IPSEC_TNCFG(5) [FIXME: manual] IPSEC_TNCFG(5)
NAME
ipsec_tncfg - lists IPSEC virtual interfaces attached to real interfaces
SYNOPSIS
ipsec tncfg
cat/proc/net/ipsec_tncfg
OBSOLETE
Note that tncfg is only supported on the classic KLIPS stack. It is not supported on any other stack and will be completely removed in
future versions. A replacement command still needs to be designed
DESCRIPTION
/proc/net/ipsec_tncfg is a read-only file which lists which IPSEC virtual interfaces are attached to which real interfaces, through which
packets will be forwarded once processed by IPSEC.
Each line lists one ipsec I/F. A table entry consists of:
+
an ipsec virtual I/F name
+
a visual and machine parsable separator '->', separating the virtual I/F and the physical I/F,
+
a physical I/F name, to which the ipsec virtual I/F is attached or NULL if it is not attached,
+
the keyword mtu=,
+
the MTU of the ipsec virtual I/F,
+
the automatically adjusted effective MTU for PMTU discovery, in brackets,
+
a visual and machine parsable separator '->', separating the virtual I/F MTU and the physical I/F MTU,
+
the MTU of the attached physical I/F.
EXAMPLES
ipsec2 -> eth3 mtu=16260(1443) -> 1500
shows that virtual device ipsec2 with an MTU of 16260 is connected to physical device eth3 with an MTU of 1500 and that the effective MTU
as a result of PMTU discovery has been automatically set to 1443.
ipsec0 -> wvlan0 mtu=1400(16260) -> 1500
shows that virtual device ipsec0 with an MTU of 1400 is connected to physical device wvlan0 with an MTU of 1500 and no PMTU packets have
gotten far enough to bump down the effective MTU from its default of 16260.
ipsec3 -> NULL mtu=0(0) -> 0
shows that virtual device ipsec3 is not connected to any physical device.
