The NICs on firewall are set up to 100baseTX-FD using /sbin/mii-tool
(and in 2.2. kernel, they are hardcoded to 100baseTX-FD via the boot
parameters).
The FTP from firewall to our FTP server (which is connected to the
same switch - Cisco Catalyst 2900) is slow as well (I tried to
get /pub/FILES.byname /dev/null).
