General Notes / Tuning Information
Network hardware: Cisco System Catalyst 2900 Series XL 10BaseT/100BaseTX 24 ports DNS configuration: "A" records for every host on the network (to map hostnames to IP addresses). "PTR" records for every host on the network (to reverse map IP addresses to hostnames). Specify operf13.p.net as the only mail exchange for domain remote13.p.net with an MX record of preference level 10. Testing performed at Mirapoint Headquarters (Performance Lab) in Sunnyvale, CA.
