I'll add to this as well, if anyone has any experience using Riverbed vs Cisco Waas, I'd appreciate hearing your experiences as well.

I wasn't able to find much documentation on their site that talks about optimization for non-smb/http protocols & wonder if anyone has used it for filesharing between two remote offices, OsX server/clients. From: Jason Morris [mailto:jmor...@mjmc.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 12:53 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Wan optimizer I used Riverbed in a test environment and was impressed with their performance. However, the application we were looking to optimize had very little benefit from the "Caching" that Riverbed uses. That wasn't a failure on their part, it was the old technology of the application. For most other data sets, it worked perfect and "as advertised". YMMV, Jason From: Tom Miller [mailto:tmil...@hnncsb.org] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 11:49 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Wan optimizer I've seen occasional talk about bandwidth management/compression. I'm looking for an appliance that can do this between my HQ site and second largest site. Anyone have any experience/recommendations. The two I am familiar with are Citrix's WANOptimizer and Packeteer (now Blue Coat).
