Mike, How are the PIXes connected? If via a crossover, you might be experiencing excessive collisions. I've tested a similar configuration as well, and I've found that placing a switch in between the two PIXes will eliminate the collisions.

Using IKE and IPsec with a laptop on either end. One is a 520 (6.2) and the other is a 501 (6.2) and Win2K and Win98 as clients. Everything works as it should but.. isnt there always a but? the traceroute response time is something like 800mS. When I telnet into the 2K box from the 98 client, it's pretty slow in the echo back to the telnet session. Ideas of what to check? I cant believe that is considered normal unless it's directly related to the 501 being pokey and the 520 being an older PII300??
