Without knowing exactly how you performed the test, it's tough to understand why you are experiencing this discrepancy. A pretty simple (albeit not very realistic for production environments) test would be to transfer a large (say 500MB) file via FTP or HTTP, once outside the tunnel and once through the OpenVPN tunnel. In case you do see significant differences in transfer rates, you should then monitor the machines that act as VPN gateways - perhaps they are not powerful enough to handle the load. Although I must say that I haven't experienced any slowdowns through tunnels implemented with <300MHz x86 machines. -A ____________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users |
