I'm looking for some information to help us baseline and level set. We currently have two 100Mb diverse Internet connections. We have about 3500 students in our campus residence village and another 500 at remote residences. The individual residences each have a 10Mb fiber back to the campus but that's a discussion for a different day. Most of the wired and wireless traffic from the on campus residence halls is directed to one of the 100Mb links while admin, faculty and some other small student population uses the other. We use Packeteer to rate limit and the two links are pretty much maxed out for a good part of the day and night. I'm curious at to what bandwidth some of the other universities have and also what type of management policies and techniques people are using.
Thanks. Bill William F.
