    When configuring GEfN, what is the maximum configuration distance between sites (for GAD and NAS respectively)?
    The customer is considering GEfN from Hitachi Vantara and a similar configuration from NetApp.

    Customers say that NetApp can be configured to span more than 500km between sites. 

    I heard that Hitachi Vantara's GAD can be configured up to 500KM. Here, 

    when configuring GEfN with NAS,

    I would like to know the maximum configurable distance considering the characteristics of TCP/IP.

    The limits of the GEfN solution is governed by GAD - please feel free to read thru one of files on SupportConnect, one of which is the following:  https://docs.hitachivantara.com/v/u/en-us/disaster-recovery-solution/6.0.x/mk-97hdrs003

    Until now, I know HIS hasn't been involved in a GEfN solution - please don't forget to reach out to @Namsoo Kim for information.
