3. Traffic Profile Overview:

Traffic profiles are not available for each network application; however, traffic consists of the following types:

A. Microsoft Exchange email (Outlook Client) with attachments (max 10 MB size)

B. File Transfers from the Stores:

Daily-Scanned receiving documents (image traffic-daily);

POS daily TLOG data at the end of the business day;

orders for items to stock store shelves;

store coupon redemption information.

Daily store transmissions from the largest store (legacy POS-TR store)**:

1 file 3.7MB in size 1 file 650KB in size 1 file 175KB 1 file 500KB **note: at a particular store, files are transmitted in sequence, not all at once. Store transmissions times will vary depending on store closing times.

C. File Transfers (SFTP) from New CARTS front-end System at the Stores:

*Data baesd on mathematical model only… POS daily TLOG data trickle feed XML format until 2/28/2008;

File size: 1.2K to 5Mbytes in size, per store Files per hour: 9-1226 files per hour, depending on store sales Midnight cut off for having all files transmitted

January 7, 2008 Page 3 of 10 Amended DSL-VSAT Attachment 7 Traffic Profile

Broadband/VSAT PWS requirements as published by DISA/DITCO.

Flat file format after 2/28/2008;

File Size: 200 to 2Mbytes in size, per store 6 to 8 per hour: every 5 minutes or when there are 100 tlogs in a file Max of 144 to 160 transmissions in 24 hours; i.e., per business day Midnight cut off for having all files transmitted

D. File Transfers from Server Centers to Stores:

Weekly: price changes & bad check information (possible multicast candidate) SFTP, 1.1M to either 8, 16 or 25Mbytes, depending on the store. Transmission must be completed within 2 hours.

E. Telnet sessions: business system access for accounting and inventory From DOS-based wireless handheld devices – character based transmissions *Note: these devices are scheduled to be replaced by Windows CE-based units.

From PCs with special keyboard emulation

F. Print sessions: daily for order confirmation & reconciliation CAO printing – up to 10 reports daily per store, from 1-600K in size, report generation is based on store demand. The user interface to CAO is web-based when accessed from a PC.

DIBS printing – up to 10 reports daily per store, from 1K to 7M in size, report generation is based on store demand. The user interface to DIBS is telnet-based.

Special CARTS Printing:

AccessVia is used for interactive printing of signs and labels. The manufacturer recommends a 56Kbps line to support just this service when it is used.

G. Web-based access for commercial Internet access: ordering of paper bags and other consumables

H. Web-based access for business system access

I. Citrix-based client/server sessions for payroll & personnel system access

J. End of Day Processing For CARTS Check Image Transmissions:

Check Image: 21,380 bytes/image File size: 64,140-12,464,540 bytes Transmission method: SFTP Frequency of transmission: 1 file/day Max transmissions in 24 hours: 1 file/day Max transmission time: 7 hours

Financial Reports:

Broadband/VSAT PWS requirements as published by DISA/DITCO.

File size: 11,900 bytes Transmission method: SFTP Frequency of transmission: 1 file/day Max transmissions in 24 hours: 1 file/day Max transmission time: 7 hours

K. Software distribution to the stores Legacy POS-TR: currently with CA Unicenter Software Distribution and Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS). This includes service packs in the hundreds of multiple megabyte range. (possible multicast candidate)

CARTS SFTP (possible multicast candidate)::

File Size: 2K-150MB Frequency: 1-2 times per month Max in 24 hours: 425MB Max transmission time: 7 hours

Desktop PC Support (possible multicast candidate):

Microsoft SMS for pushing files of all sizes, runs as needed, most of the time during off hours.

Also used for monitoring PC configuration, enforcing domain policies, etc.

L. Remote access support Legacy POS-TR Support Microsoft terminal services (also Desktop PC support) PC Anywhere

CARTS Support:

IBM Secure Director Secure CRT

Network Support:

PUTTY or Secure SSH

4. The following data illustrates typical daily store FTPs.

This data is from Ft. Belvoir, one of DeCA’s largest & busiest stores, when it was a legacy POS- TR store. The files below reflect most of the daily file transfers; they are the largest.

These 2 files are transmitted to the Enterprise Data Warehouse at DeCA HQ, Ft Lee, VA:

3,655,820 bytes ./041121/dc.001.gz (see transfer time below) 629,573 bytes ./050110/plu_extract.dat.001.gz These 2 files go to a business system:

72,005 bytes ./041114/plu_movement.eod.001.gz 448,997 bytes /050110/pluexpt.001.gz

This file displays the file transfer time of 261.19 seconds. This is the typical maximum transfer time over DeCA’s existing network:

- ftp> put dc.001.gz test.gz

-200 PORT command successful.

-150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for test.gz.

-226 Transfer complete.

-ftp: 3655820 bytes sent in 261.19Seconds 14.00Kbytes/sec
