Tags:
switching

Overview CIGNA Corporation provides employee benefits plans for organizations and offers health care, and disability and life insurance coverage products and services in 30 countries. They wanted to deploy in-depth security defenses, but their legacy network infrastructure made it extremely difficult to deploy and manage the security measures that they wanted while allowing them to easily add new business and network services in the future. To support this segmented approach, CIGNA chose to implement a Cisco Routed Access solution using the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol in its wiring closets.
