Windows exchange traffic to port 60200 (RPC)

[Richard Bradfield]

        I see a lot of traffic going to our Exchange CAS Load balancer on port 60200 ON the WAAS none of this traffic seems to be accelerated or cached.

see below extract from "sh stat conn'

985    172.16.29.78:58799     172.16.93.2:60200 00:14:5e:a4:f1:6c TG    00.0%

  1055   172.16.29.163:56113     172.16.93.2:60200 00:14:5e:a4:f1:6c TG    00.0%

  1060   172.16.29.163:56116     172.16.93.2:60200 00:14:5e:a4:f1:6c TG    00.0%

what is this traffic? should I get some acceleration?

I am runn WAAS 4.3.3

does the windows exchange traffic goes with a lot of common data or is each request different ? it may be that request don't have a lot of common data to be able to use optimization.

Small packet sizes is expected, so status "TG 00.0%" percentages are expected as well, the larger the connections  WAAS will  show greater optimization rates, are you concern about the low percentages only? or there are issues with your application ?

I suggest to open a tac case so they can get the sysreports from the two WAE's, the one closest to the server and the peer closest to the client and see what's exactly going on...
