Issue Resolved by Reporter
For other future possible reference:-
My ALG [(APPLICATION LAYER GATEWAYS) (ALL 8 OF THEM)] is filtering all my
HTTP/FTP/VOIP traffic, however is was not instructed to filter out any file
type or content.
I exempted all file types I.E *.RPM from having their packets monitored by any
ALG and this permitted no disruption of regular packet flow and resolved the
RX/TX issues completely.
It is unknown why exempting the ALG's for ANY filtering action that resolved
this issue.
The properties of all downloaded file types packets contents was not filtered
out - for example an ALG is instructed to filter out Active X, and there is NO
Active X component of the downloaded file type packets.
It appeared that just having ALG's monitoring all HTTP/FTP/VOIP packets
contained within the traffic caused enough delay in comms...I.E
ACK/NO-ACK/RETRY, that was sufficient grounds to disrupt the normal sync of
RX/TX of packets to cause errors seen in images.
I could not resolve in my own mind why I appeared to be the only one on the
planet having these issues so I continued to hunt for possibilities my end at a
comms level.
The ALG's have never caused an issue with any other traffic that did not
contain any element they were instructed to filter out or DROP OR REJECT the
packet session ID. If that were true then my comms that are NATed 3 times
should have caused an issue for ALL traffic - but this is NOT nor ever WILL be
the case.
I could take this up with my Hardware comms IDS manufacturer..but I think I
will just leave it as solved for all of us.
If anyone should require further information on what all this jargon means
please contact me privately.
Bug Closed as FIXED with deliberate intent by reporter!
