I probably have 500 or more users actively connected in cached mode using Exchange over HTTP at any given time, if not more. I have 10mbits of outbound bandwidth, but I've not done any reporting to find out how much Exchange actually uses for OWA/Exchange over RPC. Based on total traffic, I'd say I'm using a peak of around 1.0mbps for the Exchange connections. On a consistant basis, I think I'm under 1.0meg outbound for Exchange connections only. Factors effecting that are number of users active, number of e-mails, size of e-mails, if outlook is left open all the time (small bits of bandwidth used to update cache) or only opened every X hours (large chunks of bandwidth used to update cache). -----Original Message----- From: Danny [mailto:nocmonkey@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2006 11:27 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Cached mode over WAN - how many users and what type of connection? http://www.MSExchange.org/ Exchange 2003...sizing remote users via WAN connection. What is the most amount of simultaneously connected Outlook 2003 (Cached Mode) users you have over a WAN connection? And what type connection is it?
