Hello,I'm getting ridicilous ping times when pinging server on local subnet.
See below.
I have Intel PRO 1000 XT adapter and dual CPU Xeon 2.0 Ghs.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ping 10.0.1.1 -t

Pinging 10.0.1.1 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 10.0.1.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
Reply from 10.0.1.1: bytes=32 time=9306ms TTL=64

Reply from 10.0.1.1: bytes=32 time=9403ms TTL=64
Reply from 10.0.1.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64

Ping statistics for 10.0.1.1:
Packets: Sent = 7, Received = 7, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 9403ms, Average = 5345ms
Control-C

What can be the reason for this? All latest drivers and patches are installed.

It could be your cables or switches. Is your LAN tested for TIA/EIA
standards? If it is, try to change patch-cords and show us a tracert to your
local server.

BTW, do you mesured NIC's performance on your server?

Cables goes directly from server to Gig switch which is connected other
computer is connected to as well.
Tracert from server to host is having 1 hop since both on local subnet
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>tracert 10.0.1.1

Tracing route to 10.0.1.1 over a maximum of 30 hops

1 1250353 ms 1250353 ms 1250353 ms 10.0.1.1

Trace complete.

Perfomance of NIC is fine, average network bandwidth used for file copy is
around 10 MBps

I had very similar problem just after I installed and config'd my backup DC,
The only conclusion that I got to was the server was replicating and that
what was causing the stupidly slow ping times!

Other than that could there be a problem with your switch such as a dodgy port

I doubt that it's cable or port related. I switched cables already and I
connected NIC to 100 Mb switch and still the same issue. Moreover I connected
another NIC on the same box (100 BaseT NIC) and still seeing the same issue.
Also those huge pings are not actually affecting network perfomance so I
ping will have 1 ms round trip time and exactly next one will 1259353 ms
round trip which is impossible since it's 340+ hours.
I'm pretty sure it's either OS or driver for NIC but both are at latest
version, I also run Intel tests on cable, port, NIC itself and all came back
clean but this anomaly with ping still continues.

It's not only I'm getting ridicilously high pings I also getting ridicilously
low as well. And this one does not go through switch, it's actually pinging
Guest machine on the same box.

Hi,
I've seen this happening on AMD Opteron servers before I installed the AMD
driver for windows 2003. The driver corrected the clock-timer issues that
resulted in the same strange behavour.
You say you have Dual Core Intels so no match there, but maybe you need to
install the latest drivers and firmware on your server too. Check the HAL.

hope this helps.
