Perfect, I saw that several PCs were pulling new antivirus definitions from the parent server over the VPN connection! Thanks!

I'm looking for something to track what is using up bandwidth from some of our remote offices. &nbsp;It's causing the entire site to bottleneck, with ~500ms reply times, for what normally should be ~50ms across high speed cable and dsl links. &nbsp;I'm using all Sonicwall VPN appliances. &nbsp;Thank you.

Track High Bandwidth Usage Across VPN

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
