Thanks everyone for your input. I am going to try with http
and ftp (instead of ftp and scp, even though all of my
clients and servers
are Linux/solaris with 2GB of RAM and dual 3.2 Ghz CPU
boxes).
Yes, I realize that this is a small scale; however, I would
think
that in a small test scale environment, the result should
reflect
what I see in floodgate.
I will try it again and post the result. Thanks again.

are just due to your test lab setup. First I'd say try to
force the NIC and switch settings down to 10Mb full duplex
for that small of a throughput test, so you're total traffic
exceeds the available bandwidth, and see if QOS doesn't do
more of what you expect it to. You might also try comparing
an FTP transfer to an HTTP transfer, since scp is known to
throttle itself due to it's CPU based encryption, and is
more likely to skew results if either the client or the
server has any CPU change in load during your test.
Just a guess when trying to lab test something on a small
scale like that - you may not be getting the same results
you'd get if it was running a full load in production.

Hi,
Yes, I checeked QoS at the network topology. I have
everything set to 100Mbps
because everything is connected to a Cisco 2950 Catalyst
switch. I have this
setup in my lab environment.
I still have issues. Please help. Thanks.

Subject: [FW-1] Question about Floodgate
I have a question for checkpoint flood-gate gurus in the
forum.
I have NG AI R55 with HFA_20 running on SPLAT enforcement
module. This module is being managed from a Provider-1 NG AI
R55 with HFA_20. I have single firewall at the moment but I
configure ClusterXL on this firewall because I will add a
second firewall for Active/Active very soon. Everything is
working so far.
I also have Floodgate on the SPLAT enforcement. I have
3 floodgate rules (including the default rule):
1) Any Any ssh weigh_70
2) Any Any FTP weigh_15
3) Any Any any weigh_10
I have this setup "per rule" ONLY.
All interfaces on the SPLAT box is Fast-Ethernet
full-duplex.
I open three Secure Copy (SCP) sessions from a host behind
the firewall to three different SSH servers outside the
firewall (I control those ssh servers) and one FTP session
from the same host to an external FTP server (I control this
FTP server as well).
I started downloading via scp from the ssh sessions a 100MB
file size. All three scp sessions, I am getting about 16Mbps
download each. Immediately after starting the secure copy
session, I started the FTP session. Much to my amazement, I
am getting about 20Mbps download with FTP. At the same time,
I am seeing my secure copy session going down from 16mbps to
10mbps on all three of them.
With Floodgate, I thought my ssh traffics are getting a much
higher priority than FTP traffics. If that is true, then how
come my FTP traffics throughput is higher than my ssh
traffics,and that when FTP is going on, it takes away
bandwith from my SSH traffics.
Can some explain this? Thanks.
