Do you know what the packets are?<br />
Could be replication traffic. Could be a user on the frontend server with a large mailbox accessing it live, rather than in cached mode. <br />

Thanks for the comment and will check this....If I shutdown IIS on the backend server the traffic is stopped.....From an ethereal capture we are seeing<br />
continuation or non-http traffic from each frame. Any ideas of what would generating this type of traffic?

If the machine is a frontend server, then shutting down IIS basically stops most of its functionality. As for what the traffic could be, I stated that above. <br />

The problem that we're having is that one of our backend exchange <br />
server is constantly sending out HTTP packets to our frontend exchange <br />
server over the tunnel to our main office and these packets are <br />
causing high bandwidth across the tunnel, which is causing other <br />
issues with our internet, and other network connections to the <br />
main office. This is only happening to this one exchange server and not to any of our other backend exchange servers<br />
