    MPLS and TCP/UDP transfer

    It depends on how your MPLS is configured. Since MPLS will (by design) prioritize traffic by type, your particular MPLS design may restrict FTP traffic to business or economy class. Assuming you're getting 200 KBs (big K, big B) which, as someone pointed out, is 1.6 Mbps (big M, little b)...

Has real-time virus scanning, scans emails, IM, and P2P file sharing. AV updates are frequent. Been using for years on my...

    I think this might be what you are looking for: http://tinyurl.com/2unn2 Qcheck allows you to install 'endpoints' on workstations and servers around your network. Then you can fire-up the console from your local workstation, plug in the names/IPs of two 'endpoints' and test actual throughput...
