Tunnel Performance

Mon May 28, 2012 12:02 am

Afternoon All,

We've got a few locations that we service with a dedicated connection of ours. We extend OSPF to our router on site..etc.etc..
If the customer would like. We let them purchase a cable connection from the local cable company for backup.

We create a EOIP or GRE tunnel over this cable connection back to our main POP. And just run it at a higher OSPF cost.

This is all well and good, Here's the problem.

The cable connections are normally 50Mb/s down, 5Mb/s up.
If I run a bandwidth test inside the tunnel, I can only get 25-30Mb/s down.
Outside the tunnel, It does the full 50Mb/s.

This is the same for every cable connection we have. They are all terminating back to a RB493G in our rack sitting on GigE. I can even run multiple bandwidth tests to all of the locations and get an aggregate of >200Mb/s but no more then 25-30 to any single endpoint.

And ideas?

I think could be the tunneling header, try using mpls/vpls
