Cisco Expert Network Consultants

As computer technology advances, the distinction between a router and a switch is becoming less clear. Essentially, routers are Layer 3 (L3) devices designed to connect networks with one another. A common scenario is connecting an office network to the Internet via DSL. Switches are Layer 2 (L2) devices that interface various devices within a network. Generally, routers depend on processors to steer traffic based on sophisticated software, providing flexibility at the cost of throughput. Switches, by comparison, rely upon largely predefined hardware designs to forward traffic at the fastest feasible rate. Today's routers ordinarily include Layer 2 switches, and many of today’s switches have L3 routing functionality. Routers offered by Cisco, the source of 90% of the world's routers, have improved significantly in function and performance and Cisco makes a comprehensive product line that includes routers engineered to handle the needs of users ranging from individual telecommuters to nationwide service providers.

The latest ISR routers from Cisco offer the speed and integrated features to support data voice and video plus virtualization while at the same time providing high availability, remote management, seamless scalability, and advanced protection. Cisco's ISR routers enable your company to build a firm basis for an IT network that can evolve seamlessly as you add new employees, establish extra sites, deploy additional functions, give access to your system to customers and partners, and support an expanding mobile user base. Progent’s Cisco CCIE network engineers can provide fast and affordable online support to help your company to select, deploy, administer, update, and support Cisco's most advanced router technology and can assist you to maintain your legacy routers or move non-disruptively to Cisco’s current router products.
