Re: WAN accelerator recommendations
I'm interested in hearing people's view points on this as well. In general what do folks thing about implementing yet another appliance within their networks as opposed to implementing the same features (if supported by their gear vendor) within their choke points. regards, /vicky Matt Bazan wrote: Hello, I'm looking for advice and recommendations on WAN (T1 speeds) accelerator devices.

Thanks, Matt For what it is worth, one of the partners I work with was going through the due diligence of reviewing and testing WAN accelerator devices for their branch offices instead of pulling in more circuits. They were leaning toward Expand Network's gear but the entire project was dropped so they are still in the same boat. Expand's site: http://www.expand.com/ Mike
RE: WAN accelerator recommendations
I worked very heavily with the expand product line in 1999 thru 2001. Our site was one of the beta test sites for their frame-relay product. Their products are first class and yielded us fabulous results. Here's an extract from a CIO magazine article referencing my experience: Expand Networks of Roseland, N.J., builds network accelerators that save bandwidth by using several techniques. In one way, the accelerators can recognize the data packets in a single communications session, strip out their headers (which, by definition, are all the same), and replace them with a two-bit session number. Feargal Ledwidge, network manager for Irvine, Calif.-based Wyle Electronics, says he's seen a threefold to fourfold increase in effective bandwidth by using the products. Without these accelerators we would probably have had to double our bandwidth purchases, he says. http://www.cio.com/archive/070100/et.html Bottom-line - their products rock and from what I hear just keep getting better better Feargal Feargal Ledwidge Web Services Engineer NRT Web Services -Original Message- From: Michael Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 4:01 PM To: Matt Bazan Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: WAN accelerator recommendations On Tue, 25 May 2004 16:02:57 -0700, you wrote: Hello, I'm looking for advice and recommendations on WAN (T1 speeds) accelerator devices.
