00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Qumranet, Inc. Virtio network device
Problem: The virtio network device operates on 100Mbits.
How do I know that it operates on 100Mbits ?
I copy a single big file via rsh and I can see the real speed. The
network is completely dedicated to this operations, that is, there is no
other traffic between other machines.
Question: What do I have to do to use full bandwidth ?
If this is not the best forum to ask this question, do you suggest another channel ?
Thanks in advance,
Josir Gomes
