Cisco Confidential Balancing Simplicity with Security Direct cloud access (default) Cisco product sends usage information directly over the internet. No additional components are needed. Options Direct cloud access through an HTTP proxy Cisco Products send usage information over the internet via a Proxy Server. Any off-the-shelf Proxy will work. Mediated access through an on-premises collector – connected Cisco Products send usage information to a local Mediator such as the Smart Call Home Transport Gateway (Free VM Download), which automatically completes the transaction with the backend. Mediated access through an on-premises collector – disconnected Cisco Products send usage information to a local disconnected collector, which acts as a local license authority. Once a month, an exchange of human readable information will be performed to keep the databases in sync.
