Thank you very much for the reply. I knew there had to be SOMETHING I was missing.
Will give both suggestions a try when I get into work. I'm currently working on research around Congestion Window sizing, triggering, and various congestion control facilities in ZLinux, Linux, AIX, Solaris, and Windows tcp stacks.
Our group already knows the direction we want to move in for the decision for all the os settings but we are now being required to show empirical proof of the settings changes in action.. This is where you guys come in. I need the charts visually showing congestion collapse on a tcp flow on a gigabit network segment
Next trick will be seeing about getting Unsniff to pull in OmniPeek traces that are nearly 900meg in size.
Thanks again for the fast input! If this works out, I'll be putting you in the pool for our Technology Standards Board for enterprise approval.
