I have a 15 node T1-based frame relay network and am considering
migrating to a cable or DSL-based VPN. Can anyone who has done this
comment on the tradeoff of CIR for additional bandwidth? Has
reliability been an issue? Did the end user experience change for the
better/worse?
Most of my connections are 128 or 256 CIR. I've seen both symmetrical
and asymettrical service options from broadband providers. Looking
for some opinions on what makes more sense: 3M/384K or 768K/768K?
Each of these can be purchased at similar price points.
I've read about quality of service and service level agreements. What
should I be looking for, or expect to get, and in the end, do these
really make a difference?
