how to shape internet traffic?

[Guest Ramon Niese]

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,.

Hi - wrong group? This is for Windows Terminal Services. Try posting in

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 Piet,

 

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. Users in the branch offices only can setup a

RDP connection. If they surf the internet It all happens via this RDP

session. Branch offices don't have a seperate internet connection. The

problem is that I can't classify HTTP traffic because it is part of the RDP

connection. The packeteer doesn't see HTTP traffic. Only RDP traffic.
