FTP latency issue with LTM 1600

Hi,

 

I am using LTM 1600 as a proxy server for services including FTP. The problem i am facing is the latency issue. Client is facing a delay of about 8 to 10secs per response from the server. Server has been checked, is there any thing that i am missing on F5 ? I am using parent FTP profile.

 

Thanks Kash.

  • I'd suggest you do a packet capture (including client and server side flows) using tcpdump and determine where the delay occurs before assuming it's the F5. Post back if you want some help with syntax etc.

     

  • Thanks. There is no delay if i FTP to server directly by passing F5. Hence my assumption. But i will get the tcpdump to confirm.

      Fair enough. Is the path via the F5 significantly different (firewalls or whatever) of not so?
