Frame pvc fair weight queuing

[djjazzyjeff]

Hi all. My company has an office in Massachusetts and Vancouver, BC. We currently use a frame pvc with a CIR of 1024kb, burstable to 1.5. The frame is used because the cost of a ptp T1 between sites is giant! Like 30-40K/month. Most traffic between sites is smb stuff and during the day performance suffers. A friend mentioned "fair weight queuing" as a possible way to maximize this circuit but I don't know a dang thing about it. My routers are Cisco 2620 and 2611, frame pvc from AT$T. Can anyone help me on this one? Also, are there cost effective alternatives to frame offering better performance that I should consider? Thanks!

How many users? What other traffic besides SMB? Can you post a copy of your config and your IOS release? Todd VanDerwerken, CCNA, CCDA

Hi Todd, I have 110 users in the home site and 120 in Vancouver. Trafficwise in addition to SMB, there's SQL, NFS, and RPC. My company's code store is in Vancouver on a Samba/Sol8 box, we have developers in both sites, the most in Vanc. Single 2k domain across the frame with E2k boxes at each site. My version and conf are below, I don't have the Vanc end conf in front of me:
