I have a switch with multiple vlans routed through a 7200
sometimes when connecting SSH to some of my machines (dosnt matter w9ich vlan its on) it is very slow... anyone have any ideas?

drop me a message @ nathanj@netnation.com

-Thanks
 
With no other information about your network, this is a pure guess, but one of the things that will slow down an SSH (or a telnet) login is if the server to which you connect wants to do a reverse DNS lookup on the IP, and there is no reverse DNS entry for the client machine.

Could that sometimes be the case with your clients?
