...Recommendations CISCO Systems, Inc. Table of Contents Table of Contents 1 Background and Scope 2 ERP Implementation scenario 2 Situation Analysis 3 Conclusion and Recommendations 4 Background and Scope Cisco System, Inc is a Computer Technologies company that was founded in 1984. The company’s primary product is the “router.” The router is hardware and software that control Intranet and Internet traffic. With the growth of the Internet, Cisco products became in high demand. In 1997 Cisco was ranked among the top five companies in return on revenues and on assets. Cisco has been classified in the same category of successful companies as Microsoft and Intel. With the growth of Cisco, their computer systems were unable to handle the increase volume. The Cisco legacy system was a Unix-Based software package that supported its operations of: Financial; Manufacturing; and Order Entry. The system lacked reliability and the ability to expand. Eventually in January 1994, Cisco’s legacy computer system malfunctioned corrupting Cisco’s central database. The company was practically shutdown for two days. As Cisco struggle to recovered from the major shutdown, the company realized that they needed to act quickly and elected to implement an ERP system. Little over a year later, Cisco successfully implemented an ERP system from Oracle. This report has been requested by and prepared for Mr. Peter Solvik, chief information officer CIO) at Cisco System, Inc. Mr. Solvik...

...and Study Guide CISCO SYSTEMS NETWORKING Academy CCNA 2 Chapter 1 WANs and Routers One major characteristic of a wide-area network (WAN) is that the network operates beyond the local LAN's geographic scope. It uses the services of carriers, such as regional Bell operating companies (RBOCs), Sprint, and MCI. WANs use serial connections of various types to access bandwidth over wide-area geographies. By definition, the WAN connects devices that are separated by wide areas. WAN devices include the following: • • • • • • Routers, which offer many services, including internetworking and WAN interface ports Switches, which connect to WAN bandwidth for voice, data, and video communication Modems, which interface voice-grade services and channel service units/digital service units Channel service units/data service units (CSUs/DSUs) that interface T1/E1 services and Terminal Adapters/Network Termination 1 (TA/NT1s) TA/NT1s that interface Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) services Communication servers, which concentrate on dial-in and dial-out user communication Concept Questions 1. A WAN is used to interconnect local-area networks (LANs) that are typically separated by a large geographic area. A WAN operates at the OSI reference model physical and data link layers. The WAN provides for the exchange of data packets/frames between routers/bridges and the LANs that they support. Draw a WAN that includes three LANs. 1 of 116 CCNA 2 Chapter 1 WANs and Routers 2.

Cisco is one of the most powerful and successful corporation in the IP network industry. In the fiscal 2013 their revenue totaled $48.6 billion and their Net Income was $10.0 billion (Cisco 2013 Annual Report). Cisco focuses on delivering products and services that consists in integrated networks for all forms of communication and IT. They provide their customers with an integrated architectural approach that gathers application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) software, hardware, and services. In December 1984 Cisco Systems Inc. was founded by two computer scientist at the Stanford University, Len Bosack and Sandy Lerner, husband and wife. The two lovers wanted to communicate by email from their respective offices, but at the time different local area protocols communications didn’t exist. As a result the first multi-protocol router came out. Since then Cisco lead the networking market allowing “the transportation of voice, data and video within buildings, across campuses and around the world” (Cisco 2013 Annual Report. P.1). This is possible thanks to the routers, its core technology. A router is a device that joins multiple networks together, it allows the connection...

...NT2640 Cisco IOS Admin Distances & Juniper JUNOS Route Preferences Introduction Most routing protocols have metric structures and algorithms that are not compatible with other protocols. In a network with multiple routing protocols, the exchange of route information and the capability to select the best path across the multiple protocols are critical. Administrative distance is the feature that routers use in order to select the best path when there are two or more different routes to the same destination from two different routing protocols. Administrative distance defines the reliability of a routing protocol. Each routing protocol is prioritized in order of most to least reliable (believable) with the help of an administrative distance value. Prerequisites Requirements Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics: * Basics of the routing process. Refer to Routing Basics. Components Used This document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions. Conventions Refer to Cisco Technical Tips Conventions for more information on document conventions. Select the Best Path Administrative distance is the first criterion that a router uses to determine which routing protocol to use if two protocols provide route information for the same destination. Administrative distance is a measure of the trustworthiness of the source of the routing information. Administrative distance has only local significance, and is not advertised in routing updates...
