Well, 150 Kbps every 2 minutes isn't exactly a tital wave of traffic. You
could increase the bandwidth on your WAN links, that seems the most obvious.
You could also cut down the number of sensors. 4 sensors is a lot of IDS
capability. I am assuming these are RealSecure 7.0, 100 mbps sensors. That's
400 mbps of IDS capability being shoved through a 512kbps WAN link. I think
that's a little much to expect of any technology.
