QUESTION POSED ON: 08 September 2005
I am trying to troubleshoot poor telnet performance over our WAN and have come up against a figure for retransmits that I consider to be too high.
Looking at the device, the retransmits are currently 7.5% of all segments sent. I have looked at another device to try and get a feel for an acceptable level, and see figures of less than 1%.
My question is: Is 7.5% too high and very likely to be the cause of my poor performance, or have I just happened to stumble on a really good connection running at less 1%?
