satom Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Hi there, i use in my Unraid Server one Mellanox ConnectX-3 10 GBit and 2 Onboard Intel Gigabit NIC, all connectet to a Switch. All with static ip4, all in the same network. Metric ist set to 1, 2 and 3. If i copy a big file from my pc to a (ssd) cached share i get untuned 400+ mb/sec, looks like the Mellanox on eth0 is used. If i copy the same file back i reach around 100mb/sec - in use is eth2. Why? I think i have a mistake in my network config (perhaps in my brain ... As first fix i disable the 2 Intel Nics, but i like to know what is wrong and i will use the expensive onboards ... Any hints and comments are welcome Regards, Thomas Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 You can add the 10GbE IP to your Windows hosts files (that's what I do) or connect by IP address and always use the 10GbE IP. Quote Link to comment
satom Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 Sure, but i want to know why the defined metrics are ignored. Quote Link to comment

I'm on 6.9.1 and i noticed that if the default route is eth1 even if i connect through the ip of eth0 copying files are still going through eth1. Quote Link to comment

Only if you have both ports on the same network, which you must not do. Use, say, 192.168.0.x/24 for eth0 and 192.168.1.y/24 for eth1. Quote Link to comment
