Re: how to shape internet traffic?

If you can get QoS on the line between the branch office and the main office you can limit the bandwith and garantee the amount of bandwith for the traffic of terminal services sessions. (or give it the highest priority)

If you centralize internet access from the branch offices to the main offices with an central proxy server like ISA Server you can control what users can do en may see on the internet. Additionaly you can scan and classify websites based on its content with products like SurfControl or WebMarshal.

If you want to manage internet usage of users that reside on branch offices you must centralize it.
One big pipe to the internet is much cheaper as for each branch office an regular bandwidth.

Hi,

We have a head office and 80 branch offices. On the head office we
implemented a terminalserver loadbalancing farm.
We also implemented packeteer which manages bandwith on the branch
offices.
Problem is the following: If users browse on the internet we see the
bandwith of the branch location rise sky high and at that moment
working on the location is very slow.
Is there some hardware appliance or software to manage this internet
traffic for the locations?

Thx,.

Ramon

Hi - wrong group? This is for Windows Terminal Services. Try posting in microsoft.public.windows.server.networking.
