4.15 Link Speeds

For real-time mirroring, link latency is the essential consideration. For best performance, use dedicated links and provide bandwidth that can handle the amount of data being transferred between the mirrored devices.

Many factors should be considered for distances greater than 200 kilometers, including the following:

  • The amount of data being transferred

  • The bandwidth of the link

  • Whether or not snapshot technology is being used for data replication
