The ISP tells me that only we can see our data on Metro E.  
 
Thanks, I can spell HIPAA too.  We live it here in health care.

Delineation of public/non-controlled network to private/controlled
network, would be my reasoning.
Also, he is talking about an INTERNET connection. Why would you not
firewall your ISP connection???
We run Cisco VPN across all of our (non-internet) Metro-E links, just
to be able to say that we know our data is secure. HIPAA anyone?

Firewall?  Why are you routing that through a firewall?  Our setup is
our ISP's equipment is connected directly to a second core switch for
Metro E.

We recently went from a T1 Internet connection to 10meg Metro-E and we
tested 10 megs to our ISP, but only 5 to Miami, 3 to Atlanta, and only
1meg to the West Coast.
Our problem was our Firewall couldn’t handle the throughput.

Something is dirty somewhere. Could be a misconfigured port along the
way, could be bad cabling, etc…

Folks,

 

I am converting our network from point to point to MVLS/Metro Ethernet.


 

What I am noticing at some sites is that performance is worse that with
the point to point circuit.  Ping times greatly increased, collisions,
etc.  I've been working with my provider to get this resolved.  First
they thought it was a speed mismatch issue, so the provider's equipment
and my equipment were changed to the same setting (full 100).  That's
not working and now we'll probably change it to full 10 (since the
allocation is 5 Mbps anyway).  I can also do some rate shaping on my
switches, but it's a PITA and I was hoping to avoid it.

 

Anyone else have these issues with conversion?  Some sites are fine,
others are not.  All have same switches, model, firmware, config for
trunk ports.  

 

I haven't pulled out my bag o software to look at what's on the pipe,
anyone have any that would be best for this scenario?  I have Praesser
but I really need a site to site test/analysis tool.  I just downloaded
Qcheck and will see if that does it.  I've also asked my provider to
give me some statistics on traffic they see.

 

Recommendations and comments welcome.
