WAN Performance Requirements
This requirement can roughly be characterized as consumer grade DSL.

WAN Performance Comments

Network Bandwidth System needs to work with bandwidth T1 link 1.5Mbps


(minimum)

Network Latency System needs to work with 500ms network latency (max)

Network Jitter System should be able to handle network jitters, temporary


loss of connectivity.

BRKCOM-1123 2015 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Public
WAN Optimization
The ROBO deployment scenario of UCS-mini, uses WAN connectivity for
remote locations. The connections can be flaky in this case. Hence the following
optimizations were done:
Download of only the necessary images will be done to UCSM/UCS-mini. The
entire bundle will not be copied.
Restart ability is supported i.e. If network is disconnected in the middle of a
download and it comes back again previously downloaded blocks are not copied
again. This optimizes and conserves the network usage.
