NimbostratusICAP max L3 hops?
Hi All,
Is there a recommended limit on L3 hops to your icap server for AV protection so as not to cause latency?
Cheers,
Matt
How many hops you have now ? And what are the ICMP responses for each hop ?

NimbostratusTypically I dont see a performance degrade with icap protocol though we dont upload many files. Plus if you use a CDR it may take longer to analyze the file. I guess it depends on the volume of files that you are trying to scan and the number of engines you use. Network hops may not be a factor in the latency.
