5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
“The proliferation of mobile devices, the need to unify multiple access networks and the demand for mobility applications has increased the drain on IT resources. Few IT organisations will see an increase in the resources required to meet these impending mobility demands," Cisco says. Cisco sums up its architecture by saying that “IT must transform the wireless LAN into a mobility network by creating an open network platform capable of enabling the development of a broad variety of mobility applications designed to improve business agility and competitiveness. "Such a platform requires an open interface to allow third parties to source network intelligence in a consistent way without compromising the security or performance of the production network. To achieve this, IT must abstract the services layer from the network layer. This approach allows for the delivery of mobile applications across access networks, including Wi-Fi, ethernet, cellular, and Wi MAX. Furthermore, this allows for the integration of a broader Internet of ‘things’ including passive RFID and sensor networks by bridging control and provisioning of these physical networks.” CONTINUED |
