Cisco Bandwidth Control for Education Networks
Overview Colleges and universities are using a new class of rich media applications to aid and enhance the educational process. However, as high-bandwidth voice, video, and e-learning applications proliferate, the demand for bandwidth resources grows as well. Higher bandwidth networks also offer an attractive target for hackers, and emerging Denial-of-Service (DoS) and worm attacks can take advantage of bandwidth-rich environments to propagate faster than before, flooding network resources. To protect against these problems, many institutions are turning to new security strategies from Cisco Systems. The Cisco Bandwidth Control for Education Networks Solution provides a powerful set of tools to implement and enforce institution wide bandwidth control policies and unlock the full potential of high-bandwidth academic networks.
