Part One
The network creates benefits, but also requires comprehensive protection.
Modern enterprises are eased in the intelligent network system, enjoying the convenient, fast and efficient business environment that the network brings, and are also putting higher requirements for the network: the boundaries of the wireless network environment are becoming wider and wider, and the access environment is always and anywhere; the network provides more and more application functions, a large number of high-speed data transmission, voice and multimedia information exchange; and the network is becoming smarter and easier to communicate.
Therefore, establishing a network environment based on a powerful core layer has become the goal pursued by enterprises. You have benefited from applying network power, you rely on and value your network environment, you value the stability of your network, and of course, you have established corresponding protective measures. But is that enough?
Part 2
Four major questions about network construction
Question 1: The losses caused by the little worm have already exceeded 10 billion US dollars. Many people still remember the aftermath of the shock wave.
Are some inconspicuous negligence from the periphery of the network enough to cause danger to the entire network environment?
That's right! Security challenges often start at the edge of the network. To protect the network environment, core layer protection is necessary, but edge layers that are vulnerable to attack are more likely to cause danger. Just imagine the lethality of mobile users in the ubiquitous mobile network environment: any end user may be attacked in other areas, and further bring this attack to the entire enterprise network system. Maybe your database is intact, and even your host is still working, but for users, the problem directly faces is that the network is paralysis and unusable! Remember, the editing cost of a virus is very low, and various attack software programs can be downloaded at will. When you need to purchase some kind of antivirus software, the virus has already caused losses to your network!
Question 2: The CEO of business data for the whole year is now, cross-regional video conferences are underway, and four departments are transmitting data. With so many needs, can your network meet at the same time?
Must be satisfied! Network convergence is an unstoppable development trend, and mature technologies can achieve a perfect integration of networks and communications. The three-network integrated network environment is covering more and more enterprises. Through a network architecture, it can save operational costs, improve product application capabilities, and enjoy the dual stability and security of communication and data transmission. Do you think the network can do more for you?
Question 3: Software forwarding, video surveillance, timely backup... In the face of the growing application demand, do your network sometimes feel overwhelmed?
This is a simple online version of the "wooden barrel principle" reproduction: the application speed of the entire system is restricted by the weakest link. Sometimes, there is no need to complain that your server is operating too slowly, but check your desktop traffic speed and network switching capabilities.
Question 4: Perhaps just tomorrow, the business will double, and the demand for various network applications will double accordingly. Is your network ready?
Simplifying management and reducing costs are the pursuit of network managers. The network environment is a complex and tight structure, and you will find that the network is becoming increasingly picky. Remember that the network has the right to be picky, especially when it is realizing more business value for you. Applying network systems are ahead will always give you a step ahead in business development.

The network ensures the smooth operation of your business. Who will ensure the smooth operation of the network?
Cisco Catalyst Series Switches provide the highest availability and recovery from core to edge. The unique Internet operating system (IOS) has excellent flexibility to provide uninterrupted system operation and extend system life.
At the center of intelligent networks is Cisco's unique Internet operating system (IOS). This mature operating platform continues to integrate new functions with the development of needs and technologies, spread throughout the Internet interconnection field, providing a flexible, reliable, operational and manageable network center.
At the same time, the high availability, security and quality of service (QoS) it supports not only ensures effective data forwarding, but also can prioritize traffic according to user needs, provide corresponding priority and bandwidth, and more refined control of network resources, thereby providing converged network services and intelligent service guarantees. This will enable you to run your business more cost-effectively.
Focus on the core of the network from the edge layer, your intelligent network is enabled!
Part 4
Cisco's view: The network cannot be compromised!
Building a safe, stable and integrated network layer by layer is to allow network users to be aware of the existence of the network while enjoying the power of the network!
Cybersecurity cannot be compromised
Catalyst 3560 adopts the concept of access control to fully protect the edge layer in the entire network system, so that users are protected by various measures such as usage permissions and local monitoring during the process of accessing the network.
According to the permission settings, users, employees, managers, and technicians are intelligently divided into information contact and usage levels.
The access application of stand-alone users is subject to intelligent security analysis. Any application with virus characteristics or terminal system access without the necessary protection patch is deemed to be a red flag and is denied access.
Network stability cannot be compromised
Core stability + application layer stability = overall network stability, Catalyst 3560 ensures that end users and core data form a stable whole.
The perfect integration of the Internet cannot be compromised
The intelligent network built on Catalyst 3560 has no discounts in application functions, the perfect integration of IP voice, network transmission and storage functions, and the forward-looking setting of the 10,000 Gigabit backbone of the Gigabit desktop have reserved broad space for the development of users.
The service quality of the network cannot be compromised
Intelligent networks require higher service quality. Catalyst 3560, which has information priority management technology, is a representative of the highest-level network service quality.
A connected network will never allow a weak link.
The security and stability of the network have a crucial impact on the overall business. A wise network manager will never let local shortcomings affect the overall performance of the network. From the core to the edge, from the high end to the low end, make the right investment decisions with the more options offered by the Catalyst series and let Cisco create more value for your network.
The network cannot be compromised.
