Today’s scattered work force has left companies scrambling to address a
whole new set of networking pressures. Enterprise IT managers are tasked
with finding a cost-effective yet secure way to create a single unified
networking environment that includes the company’s corporate office, various
remote sites and a handful of dispersed telecommuters.
In an attempt to create a private and cohesive network infrastructure, many IT managers have pieced together a series of standalone equipment. These are often very expensive and are based upon proprietary hardware and custom
operating systems.
The end result of this implementation is a costly and cumbersome network
design that is difficult to manage and maintain. In addition, there are
scalability issues involved when adding new sites and applications;
essentially, a new hardware must be deployed every time a new service or
application is added. With this model, it is only a matter of time before
the IT manager is left to contend with a host of purpose-built equipment
that occupy precious rack space and slowly eat away at capital and
operational budgets.
