Good to Know: WAN SMB Tuning

Posted March 2nd, 2010 by Frank Vandebergh

When deploying Citrix Branch Repeater appliances to optimize the WAN infrastructure, the user experience for the remote site users will increase a lot. However, it is also important to optimize your clients to make more efficient use of the available bandwidth. We found out that setting some registry settings on the client pc’s has a big impact on the performance when browsing central file shares. Also this can prevent some bugs. In the case of one of our customers, without these tweaks sometimes not all folders where shown when browsing a network share.

There is a good summary of these settings, and an ADM template , available at the Sepago Blog here.
