    Can you advise me on bandwidth upgrade

    Locked

    by sekarsc ·

    1. My WAN set up is as follows:
    a. Frame relay link 128K CIR between India &US
    b. SUN servers in US
    c. Desktops/developers in India (& no servers in India)
    2. Applications involve Xmotif and are graphical
    3. How much should I provide as the bandwidth per person?
    4. What are ways in which I can optimally use the bandwidth?
    5. What are architectural improvements (citrix/X server etc)? what will then be improvments?

    Look forware to your valuable answers

      I think that the best thing to do would be to intall a citrix server or server farm depending on the number of users.
      Citrix will drop the amount of traffic crossing the frame relay link. Citrix Just passes the Screen information to india and the keystrokes and mouse movements to the US. if a user is idle in india nothing is transmitted during the idle time.

      Tell me how many users are in india and I can give you a better idea of hardware and bandwidth requirements.

      All on NT workstation.. Exceed is used to emulate

      Please provide me the hardware required and bandwidth for the cases a. without Citrix and b. Without Citrix
