Half or Full duplex?

Post by Guillaume Brialo » Sun, 17 Dec 2000 00:06:36



Hi,

I have a pure 100M network (2 hosts).
To increase performance while transfering big files, what is the best
solution : half or full duplex?

Once full duplex works it is way faster than half-duplex

Since most large file transfers are one way only , there isn't much to
gain in going to FD.

And acknowledgments happen when?

They go between the data packets. They are so small that the effect is
hardly noticeable. Much worse are collision problems created by full duplex
in bad cases.

Unless you're similtaneously transfering in both directions,
you won't notice much of a difference.

Only if transfering in both directions at the same time.
Otherwise, little difference.

And take up how much time on the wire, compared to full size
data packets?  And how many computers are capable of
sustaining 100 MB/s?

1. Full Duplex/Half duplex problems...

We have a few E250s running solaris 7 with the latest patch release in
all systems.  We see the systems switching from full duplex 100mbps to
half duplex 10mbps automatically.  We are not changing the configs on
the boxes nor did we change the config on our switches(Cat 5509's set
hard to full duplx 100mbps).
We would reboot the systems and the boxes would come up fine 100mbps
fd.  Mind you these boxes are serving 100 http connections per second.

What gives??
