Description
Experience Level: Expert
Estimated project duration: 1 day or less
Design details: Can you please provide the top advantages and disadvantages of using the Cisco 5672 switch versus the Cisco 3945E router? Are there any added benefits of using both the router and switch for a better defensive security architecture?
Being a Layer 3 switch, I think the switch duplicates most if not all of the router functionality except 1) non-ethernet support (we don’t need this), 2) some QoS features (could be useful), and 3) monitoring features including Netflow (again could be useful). We do eventually want to connect the server to other other sites. It’s still not clear to me if using just the Switch will reduce our security posture. However, the only connectivity on the server would be from another internal system so I think the risk for attack is low.
If we can provide clear advantages and don’t reduce the security posture,
Ideas for the visual style: N/A - lists, bullets, sentences, paragrah etc....
