1. Networks – Past, Present, and Future Cisco Systems and Department of Management Services Division of Telecommunications

2. Networks of the Past Protocol Specific Speed Specific Connection Oriented End-to-end Topology Poor Security Everything Wired Limited Network Management

3. Networks of Today IP Based/Ethernet-Metro Any-to-Any Speed Connectionless Any-to-Any Connectivity Converged Network Still A Challenge Converged Services Increased Wireless Footprint Bandwidth-on-Demand: Not There Yet! Frame Predominant WAN Protocol 5 9’s Performance Expectation

4. Networks of Today - MyFloridaNet We Have a Tendency to go Back by … - Keeping Applications Separate instead of using QOS and Other Network Features - Private VRF’s - Multiple PVC’s – Protocol Specific - Turf Issues interfere with Convergence

5. Networks of Today Good performance and good value Centralized management tools Centralized security Still very static and Org chart centric We can do better

6. Networks of the Future Unified Communications Network Used not Solely as Communications Platform but as a Convergence Tool Integrated Tools Must Support Cloud Computing Regular and Emergency Prioritization of Traffic for E-911 and Law Enforcement Security is Built in at All Levels Greater Wireless integration

7. Networks of the Future Technology is Great But Not Enough for the Network of Tomorrow – Does it Allow for the Convergence of Applications? E911 Running Next to SCADA Services – Does it Leverage Different Network Services to Increase Network Availability and Robustness

8. Networks of the Future Technology is Great But Not Enough for the Network of Tomorrow (cont.) – Future Network Needs to be Flexible Enough to be Used as a effective Business Tool that Turns Technology into a Service that’s: Easier to Incorporate into your Business Easier to Control (Management) Easier to Manage (Technical Staff) Easier to Acquire (Procurement/Budget) Simple to Use (End User)

9. Networks of the Future Technology has to be Controlled by Strong Governance – Does it provide Security – Span Of Control – Scope of Command Measures that can Verify Quality and Effectiveness Standardization – Common Set of Tools for ease of Training, Codification, and Certification
