replication way
Large networks
In large networks, you can install more RA servers for
easier manipulation. The servers would create an imaginary
structure. The burden connected with communication
with client workstations and RAS can be distributed. This
way you can also dene sub-administrators who will
control only a group of client workstations. All transfers
between servers are encrypted.
A company department network is an example of
a sub-network. It is recommended to install RAS for each
department controlling client computers only within its
own network, as seen in the next gure.
If, from the point of view of replication, RAS1 will be
set as the main (root) server, then all the other servers are
controlled by it. According to the gure, RAS3 is superior
to RAS4, RAS5, and RAS6, as well as RAS5 is superior to
RAS6 (superior = “upper server” in the scheme).
