The network layer relates to the network or networks that connect users to Adaptive Server.
Virtually all Adaptive Server users access their data via a network.
Issues at this layer include:
The amount of network traffic
Network bottlenecks
Network speed
Address these issues by:
Configuring packet sizes to match application needs
Configuring subnets
Isolating heavy network uses
Moving to a higher-capacity network
Designing applications to limit the amount of network traffic required
