Hi, everybody:

I'm a bit curious about the meaning of the "Speed" field in the "Network" item in Configuration".

Image

Specifically, why are 10GbE NICs rated at 4294 Mbps and loopback at 1073 Mbps?
The 1GbE one, however, reflects the current 1000 Mbps.

Regards.

Hello kaitwo,
Thanks for your interest in StarWind solution
This looks like wrong network speed reporting in StarWind management console.
The issue has been forwarded R&D. The issue will be fixed in next builds.
Thank you for your help

Hi,

Was this resolved in a more recent build as I have the same issue.

I doubt this is an issue. I would call it "misrepresentation", as this has got no influence on functionality.
Could you let me know your build number?

Build number 8.0.0.11456
I'd argue misrepresentation is an issue! However, more interested in, if this is fixed or not.

Not in the latest build (11818) released. I had a talk with the developers several minutes ago and they assured me the fix was ready and was going to be included into the next build available.
