Cisco sets new era of business mobility in motion
For more log on to : http://investorline.co.in/blogs/news/
Cisco on Thursday announced an evolved architecture that helps
empower businesses to meet and
exceed mobility demands and move beyond basic wireless networking into
the next generation of
business mobility =96 transforming the way business is done by fostering
broader collaboration and
new levels of productivity. This announcement is part of Cisco Motion
=96 Cisco=92s innovative vision
for business mobility that delivers practical solutions to integrate
mobile devices,
applications, security and disparate networks into a unified platform.
The cornerstone of the Cisco Motion vision is the Cisco 3300 Series
Mobility Services Engine
(MSE). This appliance-based platform offers an open application
programming interface (API) for
consolidating and supporting an array of mobility services across
wireless and wired networks.
Cisco is releasing four initial software offerings for the MSE: Cisco
Context-Aware Software,
Cisco Adaptive Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (wIPS), Cisco
Secure Client Manager and Cisco
Mobile Intelligent Roaming. The Cisco MSE and its software integrate
with the Cisco Unified
Wireless Network portfolio, Cisco Unified Communications Manager and
Cisco-compatible devices to
expand the reach and value of an enterprise=92s mobility system.

Numerous application and solution partners have integrated or plan to
integrate with the MSE.
This partner ecosystem includes Nokia and Oracle, technology partners
like AeroScout, Agito
Networks and Airetrak, as well as industry-specific application
partners like IntelliDOT and
Johnson Controls (healthcare) and OATSystems (manufacturing).
=93On Thursday=92s business mobility challenges cannot be solved using
only traditional wireless LAN
solutions when multiple network elements are converging and need to
collaborate. Cisco=92s Motion
approach is a true services-oriented network architecture that creates
a mobility network as a
platform for integrating key business strategies, processes and
goals,=94 said Brett Galloway,
senior vice president of Cisco=92s Wireless and Security Technology
Group. =93To meet and exceed
business mobility expectations, IT must secure and manage a range of
devices, integrate multiple
networks, enable applications, access information with a high level of
security, and help ensure
a consistent experience regardless of network connection or location.=94

Information Technology (IT) departments must increasingly manage
disparate networks (Wi-Fi,
cellular, passive RFID, personal wireless, sensors, Ethernet), to
handle a rising number of
devices and more applications. The Cisco Motion approach includes the
industry=92s first mobility
architecture that addresses these challenges in the following ways:
-- Unifying networks: Extending applications to devices regardless of
the connection
-- Managing the client device wave: Securing devices, centralizing
client provisioning
-- Facilitating collaboration: Selecting the right media at the right
time and right place
-- Opening up development: Open API supports integrated applications
and services
=93Cisco=92s mobility vision mirrors Oracle's approach to application
development, which focuses on
efficiently connecting users to the information they need to make
better business decisions,=94
said Jon Chorley, vice president of product strategy at Oracle.
=93Integrating Oracle's enterprise
applications with Cisco=92s open mobility platform creates tremendous
value for our customers.=94
The Cisco MSE=92s initial service offerings include the following
software components:
Cisco Context-Aware Software captures contextual information from a
full range of sensors, mobile
devices and RFID tags over the Cisco Unified Wireless Network,
allowing businesses to move beyond
basic location tracking and gather detailed information about assets
like location, temperature,
availability, and the application used. Information is channeled into
applications, increasing
asset-management intelligence. Context-Aware Software supports
enhanced received signal strength
indication (RSSI) and time difference of arrival (TDOA), improving
location accuracy and
performance indoors, outdoors and in challenging RF environments.

Flextronics, a valued Cisco partner and global leading Electronics
Manufacturing Services (EMS)
provider for Cisco and OEMs, is looking to the Cisco Context-Aware
Mobility solution to track
Cisco=92s capital assets as a service at its global manufacturing sites.
In Austin, Texas, the
company tracks high-value assets like thermal chambers and testing
equipment used to manufacture
products, enabling it to account for Cisco capital equipment and
easily locate it in real-time.
=93We need to locate customers=92 assets immediately throughout our large
facility in real time and
conduct regular inventory checks, regardless of location in the
manufacturing process.
Flextronics=92 adoption of Cisco=92s location solution is the foundation
for supporting
capital-equipment logistics management that also enhances our
capabilities to reduce
inefficiencies and provide true cost-avoidance opportunities,=94 said
Mel Day, director of
engineering services of Flextronics. =93Looking forward, we see more
assets coming into our
facilities and devices that need to connect to the network, and
Cisco=92s new Mobility Services
Engine can help alleviate the challenge of managing multiple siloed
networks and devices that
need to interoperate.=94
Cisco Mobile Intelligent Roaming facilitates seamless handoff of dual-
mode mobile devices between
Wi-Fi and cellular networks based on availability, real-time network
information and user
location. It integrates with numerous offerings from service
providers, third-party vendors and
mobile device manufacturers. By utilizing network intelligence and
client software integration
from its open ecosystem of partners, Cisco Mobile Intelligent Roaming
software gives IT
additional control of mobile devices while helping to create a
seamless mobile experience.

=93As users access more applications and services on their mobile
devices, businesses need a
unified approach to managing the mobile networks and securing their
data. A unified mobility
system approach like Cisco Motion helps enhance the mobile experiences
and ease the automatic
handoff between wireless networks in offices and cellular networks in
public environments,=94 said
Tom Furlong, senior vice president, Services & Software, Nokia. =93Nokia
is targeting to deliver
automatic handoff to Cisco's internal Nokia Intellisync Call Connect
users and other customers in
its next software release.=94
Cisco Adaptive Wireless IPS is a new intrusion-prevention system that
delivers the feature depth
of an overlay solution with the full benefits of an integrated
solution. It integrates wireless
threat detection, mitigation, vulnerability scanning and performance
monitoring into the wireless
network. It assists in protecting against rogue access points and
clients, wireless hacking and
day-zero threats. RF spectrum analysis provides self-healing
protection. Proactive prevention
includes automated vulnerability analysis, management frame protection
and infrastructure
authentication. Purpose-built collaboration between wired and wireless
intrusion prevention helps
provide full protection (Layers 1 to 7) by detecting inappropriate
network activity or malware
spawned by wireless clients. The Cisco MSE centrally processes,
analyzes and correlates events
from the Adaptive Wireless IPS monitors, providing broad mobility
threat protection.

The final announced MSE software product, Cisco Secure Client Manager,
centralizes the security
and management of provisioning various mobile devices via the Cisco
Secure Services Client 802.1X
solution over wired, Wi-Fi, cellular and other wireless networks. It
addresses one challenge
faced by IT: managing the connectivity and security of Wi-Fi and other
mobile devices. The MSE=92s
open API enables integration with third-party device management
software and solutions.
Availability
The Cisco 3350 Mobility Services Engine is scheduled to begin shipping
in June 2008 with prices
beginning at $19,995 USD. The Cisco Context-Aware Software is
scheduled to begin shipping in June
2008. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network Software Release 5.1 ships in
May 2008, and includes
critical new mobility features, as well as support for the Motion
architectural approach. Both
the Cisco Adaptive Wireless IPS Software and Cisco Mobile Intelligent
Roaming Software are
scheduled to ship in the second half of 2008, and the Cisco Secure
Client Manager Software is
scheduled to ship in the first half of 2009.
