(RADIATOR) Volume/Bandwidth

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Andrew -

Your estimate of 3000 logins/logouts per day will generate approximately

	3000 x 3 x 0.5 = 4500 kb of traffic in total (4.5 mb)

	(access request, accouting start, accounting stop at 0.5 kb each)

In other words, something on the order of one half of one second's worth of 
traffic on a 10 mb ethernet (spread out over the day).

I don't think you will have a problem.

BTW - we have many customers running anything up to 1000 requests per second.

If you have any other questions, please ask.

regards

Hugh
