All,

I am trying to troubleshoot some network slowness behind a PIX 506E firewall running 6.3.3 This is the current "show interface" from the PIX and if I am reading this correctly the input queues are maxed for both interfaces. If that is the case is there anything I can do or are they hitting the limit of this model PIX? I am not very familiar with them to be honest. Thanks in advance for the responses:
