Transactional is 440-byte HTTP traffic with high connections/second and one transaction per connection seen in e-commerce
transactions and instant messaging. Media-rich is 765-byte HTTP traffic with low connections/second and multiple transactions
per connection, which is seen on the most popular websites. Every deployment scenario is different, and IPS performance will
vary based on live traffic profiles. Users should test with as much live traffic as possible to assess your network’s individual
characteristics.
