I'm working on a project were 30 Workstations will be added to our network.
The Stations will induce heavy nfs traffic (bitmap maps) and SQLnet traffic.
We teach and develop on GIS -Geographic Information System.
As this setup is in new premise, We have the opportunity to design the
networking of this workcell from scratch.
We are evaluating multiple ethernet segment vs FDDI.
Does anyone have experience with 30+ networked workstations with FDDI?
What are the issue on management and upgradability?
Is there somewhere on the NET performance figure of such configuration
(DEC & SUN hardware)?
Thanks for anyone who can make the point clearer.
