optimize traffic

[ohassairi]

hello

suppose we have a company with 100 PC and 1 LL (2M) connection to internet.

50 PC are connecting to an external public web server that displays to all 50PC the same dynamic table.

so there are 50 simultenous connections to the same server just to obtain the same dynamic page. is there a way to optimize this traffic so that just one server makes connection to the public web server and then distributes the containing to the 50PC.

If you talking about saving bandwidth or faster content access, then run any caching solution in you network, MS ISA server is one of them.

using caching can give user an old web page. howevwer in my case the page is dynamic and is changing every 5 seconds.

so i think caching can not acheive such objective. what do you think?

Yes it really depends on circumstances, you can custmise ISA sever further to act the way as you want in terms of caching dynamic content and expiration of the content

I suggest you to download the trial for the latest version of ISA 2006 Standard from Microsoft website, which gives you 180 Days to run, see if its suitable for your needs.

Hi,

As this is a Cisco forum maybe you want to consider the relevant Cisco products?

Have a look at the WAE-512:

Also, there is a router network module that runs ACNS sofwtare as follows:

The Cisco products have more features and offer far better control of content than the MS ISA software.
