The intelligent IP network foundation facilitates consolidation by supporting distinct application and server environments on the same physical infrastructure, and by maintaining their virtual separation for security and availability purposes.
This intelligent IP infrastructure, when combined with the appropriate storage network, provides IT organizations with a data center network foundation that delivers the security, availability, manageability, and optimized application delivery required to meet and surpass service-level agreements, rapidly deploy new applications, support new technologies, and scale to accommodate future growth.
