Hi all,

When setting up an international AG meeting (amongst Toolkit users) where all 
participants are connecting to the same VenueServer (to meet in the same 
virtual venue) is it preferential for all nodes to connect to their local 
BridgeServer, or should everyone connect to the same BridgeServer ?

I know that generally, it's better for everyone to meet at the same 
BridgeServer (less Multicast to worry about).

My question is mainly concerning the speed of network connections - one model 
of AG is to maintain good connections (and good multicast) between the 
BridgeServers, such that users only need to be concerned with their own 
connection to their local BridgeServer (I'm ignoring users with local Multicast 
connectivity here). Alternatively, users may connect directly to the same 
BridgeServer, regardless of where it resides, but this may not be the optimum 
network path.

Just wondering what the general view is on this.

Regards, Ben.
