After all the physical layer stuff is ruled out or fixed if the problem
still exists. It's time to get your packet analyzer out.

Subject: RE: slowness in network ?? how to cure?? help!!
- Is this one user connected by one cable directly to the switch?, or
- Is this several users connected to a hub that is connected to the switch?
- If more than one user share the same connection to the switch, how many?
- Are you running 10BaseT or 100BaseTX?
- Are you using CAT5 (or better) cables?
- Are the cable you mention lying on top of light fixtures or other
electronic equipment?
- Is the server they are accessing conencted directly to the switch or via a
hub?
- Is your server fast enough to live up to the demands (cpu, memory, etc.)?
and so on, and so on.
A good way to solve a problem like this is to draw your network on a
whiteboard (or somewhere else) and then eliminate one thing at a time so you
end up with your bottleneck/problem.
I do not know what kind of switch you have, but start by looking for
utilization on the port the cable is connected to. If it's up around 70% or
more, then that is probably your problem right there.
Hth,
Ole

Hi.. Dear Friends,
I have a two question to ask
1)If the users complained that they are facing slowness to access a
particular server? and I traced the LAN cable of the server and it is
connected to one port of the switches. then we telnet to the switches to
take a look ? But what we support to look into?? and what can we do to
cure the slowness.
Tong
