Question for someone with some experience with long haul links (Las Vegas --
New Jersey)
[Cisco 4510 - SVI-VLAN x]---trunk---[Nexus5K LH optic]===fiber==={carriers
across country}===fiber===[Nexus5K LH optic]---trunk---[Cisco 4510 - SVI-VLAN x]
We have two circuits, one that is the same vendor from east to west, and the
other circuit is a two vendor deal. Both circuits are 1 Gbps with around 67-70
ms delay.
As soon as we had the links turned up, our SAN guy started complaining about
poor throughput, asking us to throw in a couple of wan accelerators.
He was seeing a max throughput of around ~200 Mbps.
Question: For a long haul 1 Gbps link with 67-70 ms delay, would installing a
pair of wan accelerators make a big difference?
Thanks,
