How to choose WAE for a Central Manger?

[TCAM]

I am assuming that the chosen WAE hardware for central manager doesn't need to be  the same model for WAE accelerator.  If I am wrong, please correct me.

What WAE hardware/model you will use to act as a central manager?

Is it based on the sizing of WAEs that you are going to deploy?

What are the rules?  How to calculate?

Thanks!

  Hi Joe

It is based from the Manager Nodes Number. Remember that the Central Manager Hardware needs to support

the WAAS Version you want to deploy in the WAAS Devices..

Appliance            Manager Nodes

WAVE-474                 250
WAE-512-1GB            500
