Hi guys,
I just try to troubleshoot internal bandwith issue.
So here my setup.
WAN2 = internet speed test can cap my 150Mbs internet service
WAN1= Forti AP
DMZ = Unraid NAS
Internal hardware= different PC and Raspberry PI
All port are 1000Mbs full duplex
When I copy a large file from or to my NAS I can only get 100Mbs
When I do a IPERF3 test from my NAS to my PC same 100Mbs
When I do an IPERF3 from DMZ port (in fortigate CLI) to my PC (internal hardware switch port)I only get 260Mbs
When I do an IPERF3 from DMZ port (in fortigate CLI) to my NAS (DMZ port)I only get 460Mbs
When I do the IPERF test from Fortigate to my PC CPU core peak at core #1 40% core #2 100% core #3 and #4 1%
When I do the test from PC to NAS the fortigate CPU is 1-2 % range on all core.
again all port are 1000Mbs
So my goal is to be able to reach 1Gbs when connected trough my NAS
Any though?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

No the Raspberry PI is only for my sump pump pit monitoring.
My nas is UNRAID on a I5- 4670 intel setup.
The command that I remove that seem to fix the problem are:
config firewall shaper traffic-shaper
edit "fortilink" set guaranteed-bandwidth 100000 next
config firewall shaping-policy edit 1 set service "ALL" set dstintf "dmz" set traffic-shaper "fortilink" set traffic-shaper-reverse "fortilink" set srcaddr "all" set dstaddr "all" next end
I did change many things in my 60E at the begining.
One thing i'm not sure in the config
Is it normal to have a virtual switch with an hardware switch like this?
Thanks

It seem that I had a traffic shapping of 100Mbs on the DMZ port
I remove it and now I can go up to 750Mbs!
Is the NAS on the raspberry pi?
The raspberry pi is not gigabit.
Regarding the HW switch, yes, that is the default after factory-reset. The switch is using a hardware chip, not slowing things down like a software switch. But, this is model dependent, other models might or might not have the hardware for it.
