New Design Principals For Campus Networking

I�m joined by Kumar Srikantan Senior Director of Cisco�s Internet Switching Business Unit to discuss systemic IT changes, which are driving new design principals for campus networking. IT departments are required to support real-time multimedia services, multi-directional traffic, seamless wired and wireless connectivity, virtualized resources, automated management etc. In this podcast Kumar and I discuss how these IT trends have forced campus networking to evolve beyond a connectivity service to a strategic business platform by delivering network services. One key attribute of new campus network design is the ability of the network to detect specific applications and alter its configuration to deliver the best performance and experience to users. Now that�s strategic. You need to listen to this podcast. Enjoy Nick.
