CIS 560 Week 4 Case Study 2
Case Study 2- Cisco’s Remote Access
Go to Cisco’s Website and read, “How Cisco IT Provides Remote Access for Small Offices and Teleworkers”, located at http://bit.ly/MkvlbA. According to the study, an IDC forecast from December 2007, expected the global mobile worker population to increase from 758.6 million in 2006 to more than 1.0 billion in 2011. Cisco had a significant number of telecommuting employees and faced three challenges: provide network access features that cannot be supported on a software VPN client, automate and simplify router provisioning and updates, and enable a scalable VPN solution to support up to 30,000 workers.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1.Evaluate the deployment cost savings realized by Cisco, and determine if it was significant.
2.Analyze how the solution deployed by Cisco improved:
a.employee productivity
b.satisfaction
c.retention
3.Discuss how Cisco was able to achieve VPN scalability to support thousands of users.
4.When thousands of employees telecommute and work in virtual offices, there are benefits to the environment. Discuss the environmental impact of the Cisco telecommuting and virtual offices solution.
5.Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.
