Running Oracle Utilities Network Management System software over a shared local area network and wide area network requires a network analysis. Network latency can cause significant problems with an Oracle Utilities Network Management System. Specifically care should be taken to ensure adequate bandwidth and minimal latency between all major Network Management system back end components. This includes the Network Management System node, the Oracle RDBMS node and the Oracle WebLogic application server node.

In addition, if you intend to support Oracle Network Management System clients over a high-latency or low bandwidth connection, non-standard deployment schemes may be necessary to ensure acceptable client performance. For example it may be required to run the Oracle Network Management System Java clients on something similar to a Windows Remote Desktop Services type infrastructure.
