Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Extremely low throughput between AIX 7.2 and RHEL Maipo Post 303044537 by MadeInGermany on Tuesday 25th of February 2020 03:47:57 PM

I wonder why the shown MTU is 1460 while the standard is 1500.
But if your LAN switch/router works better with 1460 then try to set it on the other box, too.

I remember a similar issue (severe packet loss), where all Linux systems had the standard MTU 1500. The LAN guy changed the MTU on the LAN switch (or router?), and that fixed it.

TRACEPATH(8)						 System Manager's Manual: iputils					      TRACEPATH(8)

NAME
tracepath, tracepath6 - traces path to a network host discovering MTU along this path SYNOPSIS
tracepath destination [ port] DESCRIPTION
It traces path to destination discovering MTU along this path. It uses UDP port port or some random port. It is similar to traceroute, only does not not require superuser privileges and has no fancy options. tracepath6 is good replacement for traceroute6 and classic example of application of Linux error queues. The situation with tracepath is worse, because commercial IP routers do not return enough information in icmp error messages. Probably, it will change, when they will be updated. For now it uses Van Jacobson's trick, sweeping a range of UDP ports to maintain trace history. OUTPUT
root@mops:~ # tracepath6 3ffe:2400:0:109::2 1?: [LOCALHOST] pmtu 1500 1: dust.inr.ac.ru 0.411ms 2: dust.inr.ac.ru asymm 1 0.390ms pmtu 1480 2: 3ffe:2400:0:109::2 463.514ms reached Resume: pmtu 1480 hops 2 back 2 The first column shows TTL of the probe, followed by colon. Usually value of TTL is obtained from reply from network, but sometimes reply does not contain necessary information and we have to guess it. In this case the number is followed by ?. The second column shows the network hop, which replied to the probe. It is either address of router or word [LOCALHOST], if the probe was not sent to the network. The rest of line shows miscellaneous information about path to the correspinding hetwork hop. As rule it contains value of RTT. Addition- ally, it can show Path MTU, when it changes. If the path is asymmetric or the probe finishes before it reach prescribed hop, difference between number of hops in forward and backward direction is shown folloing keyword async. This information is not reliable. F.e. the third line shows asymmetry of 1, it is because the first probe with TTL of 2 was rejected at the first hop due to Path MTU Discovery. Te last line summarizes information about all the path to the destination, it shows detected Path MTU, amount of hops to the destination and our guess about amount of hops from the destination to us, which can be different when the path is asymmetric.

tracepath was written by Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru>. SECURITY
No security issues. This lapidary deserves to be elaborated. tracepath is not a privileged program, unlike traceroute, ping and other beasts of this kind. tracepath may be executed by everyone who has some access to network, enough to send UDP datagrams to investigated destination using given port. AVAILABILITY
tracepath is part of iputils package and the latest versions are available in source form from anonymous ftp ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-rout- ing/iputils-current.tar.gz. iputils-020927 27 September 2002 TRACEPATH(8)
