HP 4104GL w/ multiple gl module

Hi there !

I got few trouble with a switch 4104gl (j4887a) who got 2x 10/100 tx gl module, and a gigabit module (j4864A
). Using only TCP/IP with all 100mbit client on it(FO on gigabit), it result on a slow network speed, we sniffed the network and we discovered there is a lot of TCP fast retransmission, TCP frozen window, long ACK, tcp transmission, tcp window size exceeded (of course I talk about tcp stack term). We have tried to force specific ports to 100mbit, without sucess. Tested cables, no sucess. We tried to use the other module ( A has fail, and B too).We transfer all the cable to another "cheap" switch, and no error into the tcp/ip stack...

Have you tried to upgrade the firmware to the last version?

I experienced the same problem some months ago, upgraded the firmware and unexpected traffic dissapeared.

Hope this helps!

according to release note of the firmware, it don't fix that kind of problem I have. This switch is brand new.
