Application Hangs, Need help with packet Analysis

Hi,

I am troubleshooting an issue with an POS\Restaurant application that is hanging and has slow performance. Vendor had me send the a packet capture from one of the terminals. They are saying it looks like the firewall is causing the disconnects with the hosted system, but for troubleshooting we have firewall wide open. Can someone take a look at the following stream and let me know if it looks like the firewall would be causing an issue? To me, it looks like the terminal (10.215.50.101) is sending the RST after the communication was ended with a FIN packet and the server tried to send Encrypted Alert. I'm just not the greatest at Analysis.
