Ok, this is a bit complicate, so bear with me:
I have recently installed a fiber cable linking one room to another. The cable is a 10GB multimode fiber.
This is the setup:
Room 1: Mac Mini with 10GB ethernet card, Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4S
Room 2: Supermicro MB with 10GB SFP+ port, Unifi switch with 10GB SFP+
Room 1 and room 2 are connected via the 10GB cable between the Unifi and and the Microtik switches. Both are reporting a link of 10GB. A link between the Mac and the Mikrotik, as well as the link between the supermicro and the Unifi switch, are all reported as 10GB.
On the Supermicro board, I have ESXi and TrueNAS as a VM. On ESXi I have a VLAN for storage (vlan 50). The TrueNAS has a NIC connected to the port group that has the vlan 50, and the Mac Mini is also connected to the vlan 50. I seem to be able to get traffic between the Mac and the TrueNAS without the router being involved (which would then reduce the speed, as the router is connected to a 1GB link).
But iperf is showing 1GB speeds between the Mac Mini and the TrueNAS! I have no clue on what could be impacting this, but could anyone give me a hint?
