1. IS 4506 Tuning and Monitoring Internet Information Server

2. Performance Overview IIS Design Considerations Monitoring the services Factors affecting Internet Information Server performance Internet Information Server performance tuning

3. IIS Design Considerations PDC or BDC and IIS Server IIS with its own Domain (PDC) for security IIS Server outside the organizational Domain. Database, SMTP, NNTP, Index, FTP Servers Hardware requirements Network Connections - NIC and line speed Using SSL

4. Monitoring the Services Performance Monitor Counters (383 & 390S) Event Viewer logs and Internet Information Server logs Site Server - Content Analyzer & Report Writer Other tools Netstat - Snapshot (314MS) Network Monitor (captures frames information)

5. Factors Affecting Internet Information Server Bandwidth Internet connection type Network connection capacity Hardware CPU bottlenecks RAM bottlenecks Network adapter card bottlenecks Hard disk bottlenecks

6. Factors Affecting Internet Information Server Network Application Speeds ISAPI, CGI, and ASP ODBC logging Security features - SSL

7. Internet Information Server Performance Tuning Restricting bandwidth (Override computer) Balancing memory against response speed Limiting connections and setting timeout values Internet Information Server cache Maximizing processor share Increasing CPU Speed
