Slow traffic in one direction

Hello, I have several 2848 switches and a 6200yl which are uplink by either fiber or copper.  The switches are also connected to a managed router / WAN solution.

 

We are experiencing a phenomenon where "inbound" traffic, that is, anything coming from the WAN to the LAN is fast, but outbound to the WAN is crawling at around 9-10kbs.  Also, on the LAN itself, we experience the same type of behavior.  A PC on one switch can send a file to a server on another switch fast, but when that same file is retrieve FROM the server, the transfer is slow.

 

All firmware is up to date, no LACP or trunking, only a couple of VLANS on the switches.  They are pretty vanilla.

 

Any thoughts as to what could be causing this issue?

Re: Slow traffic in one direction

Get rid of QoS priority 7.

 

Default queues in devices are usually very small for priority 6 & 7 (although Procurve appear to have treated 6 as though it were 5 for some reason, so 6 works on Procurve but in a mixed vendor environment, 6 is not a priority that gives you any kind of good performance).

 

5 should be used for Voice

4 for video

0 for default
