A user uploads a Word document to a Sharepoint server via HTTP, optimized by two SteelHeads. Another user at the same location as the first downloads the same Word document via CIFS.
What speed should the second user expect?

1. A. Fast as the data patterns are recognized by SDR regardless of direction or which unencrypted application protocol is used
2. B. Slow as the data is being transported via a different protocol and the SteelHead needs to learn the new patterns
3. C. Fast as the SteelHead now has a local copy of the file in the web proxy cache
4. D. Slow as the data is travelling in a different direction and the SteelHead needs to learn the new patterns

Correct Answer: C
RiOS has provided CIFS optimization since version 1.0, with ongoing enhancements in each subsequent version. CIFS optimization focuses on reducing the impact of WAN round-trip latency of common application and system behavior, including the Microsoft Office product suite, general file access, and remote printing.
