chatty protocol

    0.01 sec.
chatty protocol
A network protocol in which servers and other network devices constantly announce their availability over the network. The continuous transmission of these packets adds to network overhead. Also said to be chatty are protocols that wait for an acknowledgment before sending the next packet. In this case, the back-and-forth communication adds overhead. See broadcast.

lt;p>It's similar to the way Riverbed's technology deals with application latency, by slashing the number of roundtrips over the WAN that a chatty protocol such as CIFS requires.
The Juniper Networks DX and WX/WXC application acceleration platforms improve end-user productivity, enhance the user experience, and minimize the performance impact of multiple roundtrips caused by chatty protocols like TCP, HTTP, CIFS and MAPI.
They did this by deploying a first generation of solutions that were intended to mitigate the impact of chatty protocols such as CIFS (Common Internet File System), to offload computationally intensive processing (for example TCP termination and multiplexing) off of servers, and to provide visibility into the performance of applications.
