This MIB is for managing Wide Area Network (WAN) Optimization
systems. The objective of WAN optimization system is to reduce
as much traffic as possible on WAN link and improve the
application response time for various applications, which gets
affected due to bandwidth, packet loss, congestion and latency
limitations of WAN link. WAN optimization system is generally
peer based system. They are located at both end of WAN link and
peer with each other to perform optimization. This MIB provides
instrumentation for monitoring statistics for various features
implemented for WAN optimization. WAN optimization features
includes TCP protocol optimizations and various Application
Optimizers (AOs). AOs include SMB AO, HTTP AO, CIFS AO, NFS AO,
MAPI AO, VIDEO AO, SSL AO and EPM AO.
        
Acronyms and Terminology used in this MIB are:
AO               : Application Optimizer
TFO              : Traffic Flow Optimization
SMB              : Server Message Block
CIFS             : Common Internet File System
HTTP             : Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
NFS              : Network File System
SSL              : Secure Socket Layer
MAPI             : Messaging Application Programming Interface
EPM              : End Point Mapper
RA               : Read Ahead
MD               : Meta Data
PT               : Pass Through
AD               : Auto Discovery
RTT              : Round Trip Time
Conn             : Connections
File Server      : SMB/CIFS file server
peer             : It refers to peer WAN optimization system 
                   located on other end of WAN and registered 
                   with this device to optimize the traffic.
SharePoint       : SharePoint is a Microsoft Application that 
                   provides a collaborative environment for 
                   using Microsoft Office and related 
                   applications. Typical deployments of 
                   Microsoft SharePoint use one or more        
                   SharePoint servers in a server farm for 
                   scalability. The actual data for the various
                   documents, etc. are usually stored in a 
                   backend database. The SharePoint server(s) 
                   communicate with the backend database using 
                   SharePoint Back-end protocols. Clients 
                   (either Microsoft Office Applications like 
                   Word, Excel, PowerPoint or Web Browsers) 
                   typically connect to the SharePoint server 
                   and communicate using SOAP over HTTP.
Fast Connections : End to end connections which uses existing 
                   TCP connection over WAN and reconstructs
                   only LAN connection is fast connection.
DRE              : Data Redundancy Elimination.
LZ               : Lemple-Ziv data compression.
PLZ             : Persistent Lemple-Ziv data compression.
