Direct Access of a Remote Model from Modeler
This solution is the simplest way to work across sites, but for a reasonable performance you must have a high-bandwidth low-latency connection between the sites.
Ideally you want a connection that has a latency of less than one 1 millisecond. As the latency of a connection increases from 1 millisecond, the performance and responsiveness of the Modeler client decreases.

You can reduce network traffic by hiding the status bar, toolbars and the Property Pages when not in use.

The following diagram illustrates a potential configuration for working across sites in this way.
The following table summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of working across sites in this way:
|
Advantages
|
Disadvantages
|
|---|---|
|
Simple configuration and implementation.
Direct access of the model, so changes are immediately seen by other users of the model.
No administration requirements for transferring information across sites.
|
You require a permanent high-bandwidth, low-latency connection between the sites.
