IPSec is very slow between two pfsense routers

@patrick-pesegodinski

Post your iPerf syntax here so we can understand what you are doing.
Something along the lines of

iperf3 -c 192.168.70.26 -P 50 -t 30

Also post for us the before MSS change and after MSS change results.

@keyser
I found something in redmine for MTU suggestions.

@michmoor Excuse my ignorance, but I'm not familiar with iperf. Which fields do I need to adjust?

@patrick-pesegodinski
do not use iperf on the firewall.
use iperf between your clients (sitting behind your firewall).

Best MSS for IPsec tunnel Model 1328, if you use transport Mode and a 1500 WAN line, you can use 1372.

@NOCling hello friend.

Thanks for helping me. Your information about MSS with 1328 solved my problem.

What should be the average IPSec VPN speed between two pfsense with 1Gb NIC interface and 1Gbps internet?
I've seen all kinds of comments on different forums that the speed could be higher, but I can't do more than that:

@patrick-pesegodinski Did you Apply MSS on WAN interface settings and does it need to be same on both sides of tunnel ?

[patrick.pesegodinski]

@optimusprime I apply in this option:
