11.13 Network adapter planning

Some planning should be done for the OSA Adapter. In our test system, each Domino server had an OSA Adapter port. LinuxC had two ports, one for each Domino server supported by LinuxC. The aggregate rate across each adapter was between 70 K and 100 K bytes for this interval. Thus, a 1 Mbit adapter would not be suitable for this workload, and we were fortunate that these were 10 Mbit.
