Results of KSN proxy server performance testing

If your enterprise network includes a large amount of client devices and they use the Administration Server as KSN proxy server, the Administration Server hardware must meet specific requirements to be able to process the requests from the client devices. You can use the testing results below to evaluate the Administration Server load on your network and plan the hardware resources to provide for normal functioning of the KSN proxy service.

The tables below show the hardware configuration of the Administration Server and SQL Server. This configuration was used for testing.
