Nortel Network Case Study: Milton Keynes General NHS Trust
Overview Milton Keynes General NHS Trust offers clinical services to the people of Milton Keynes and the surrounding locality. With the city's population set to double by 2031, the Trust is under constant pressure to improve efficiency and performance. With its local area network unable to provide the capacity needed to achieve NPfIT performance targets, the Trust required a complete overhaul of its existing IT platform. To give the Trust a highly resilient VPN that would support NPfIT applications, Nortel provided: Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600, deployed to provide an actively resilient network core, enabling the Trust to establish and maintain excellent levels of network resiliency and application availability. Nortel Enterprise Network Management System enables network administrators to identify potential problems before they have an impact on service.
