How to Edit Connection Details in the Model Editor

Perform the following Model Editor task to edit connection details for the following types of connections:

  • Client connection
  • LAN
  • SAN interconnect
  • Site-to-site
  • WAN

The available bandwidth of a connection is an important factor when Capacity Planner simulates communication between two sites, because it calculates utilization based upon the bandwidth available to the link.
