Reducing the problems

Improve Coverage:
Fill in coverage holes Tune radio network parameters

Increase capacity:
New infrastructure Upgrade/change technology Transmit less data (compress/cache)

Internet and TCP/IP built for fixed lines

Radio NW:
Lost packets: Normal Long /variable round trip time: Normal Slow start: Waste of allocated channel

Internet:
Lost packets: Congestion, back off Long /variable round trip time: Multiply timers Slow start: Safe way to set up connections

Getting started implementation steps

1. Trial
You can have a Sambal trial up and running in a couple of weeks.

2. Real Sambal implementation

Going from a Sambal trial to a real Sambal implementation is very easy. Just get a license.

3. Ramp up
Start in small scale and ramp up in a pace which suits you.

Training
Personnel IP Network Design Team Network Monitoring Team One full day of on-site training
Sambal commands User Interface is Juniper-style
