 Recently the Director of Strategic Enterprise Technologies for Nortel - Tony Rybczynski, praised the new Cisco ASR 1000 router in his March 6th blog story: |
Cisco’s ASR 1000 designed for multivendor enterprise branch networks
Tony made the following five points:
| 1. | The press release quotes the SVP and GM of the Cisco Service Provider Group, confirming who the product was primarily designed for. |
| 2. | It’s called an aggregation router. |
But aggregation in enterprise networks is most often provided by the public network cloud (based on MPLS, Ethernet or the Internet).
For enterprises, put these together and it spells great news!
Cisco’s new enterprise core router (the ASR 1000) is built for multi-vendor carrier environments, and opens the door for enterprises to look at converged branch solutions from other vendors, to realize better network performance, better reliability, and lower TCO and to unlock themselves from Cisco.
Do YOU agree with Tony that the new Cisco ASR 1000 router is great news for enterprises?

"Never let the facts get in the way of a good story."
The 'great news' for enterprise is less about the technology and more about the opportunity to really look seriously at multi-vendor networks, without Cisco FUD making it seem like a highly risky undertaking.
