Network Connections for Directory Proxy Server

Directory Proxy Server is a network-intensive application. For each client application request, Directory Proxy Server may send multiple operations to different data sources. Make sure the network connections between Directory Proxy Server and your data sources are fast, with plenty of bandwidth and low latency. Also make sure the connections between Directory Proxy Server and client applications can handle the amount of traffic you expect.
