Editor's Notes
Some customers have been looking to point-products to address their application performance issues. This requires an overlay network of appliances in their network which means more network complexity for deployment and management, not to mention a significant investment.
Integration challenges: This type of model requires IT to determine how to set up network, so all the products interoperate efficiently.
Difficult to scale and manage: If the network needs to grow or change, IT will need to look at additional, configuration changes required. Also, if there is any failure, pinpointing the problem will be difficult.
Expensive: Both upfront equipment costs (capex) and ongoing management (opex) will be very costly. It will likely need to be very selective on where these types of capabilities need to be hosted to manage expenses.
Cisco’s approach for addressing today’s application performance requirements is with One Network that Unifies Services.
We enable this one network, leverage our industry leading routing technology as the platform to host critical services. We have done this is the past across many network services, including security, unified communications, and wireless.
Cisco is redefining the roles of the router to expand beyond L2-L3 transport services, and now move up the stack, and include L4-L7 Application Services.
We recognize that with application delivery getting more complex, new demands are placed on the network to meet user expectations. We believe this will result a new standard for branch services that will require application services to be pervasive network wide.
Why the router? To do this efficiently, be believe the router – which demarks the LAN and WAN, with the closest view in to what is happing on the network – is the optimal place in the network to deliver application services that can scale network-wide with simplified IT operations and lower costs.

What can Cisco ISR AX do for your business?
Your business applications can run faster. We work with leading app vendors to tune their applications to run more efficiently on a Cisco network, automatically … reducing bandwidth by up to 70% and supporting more session and a bester user experience. The business investment on mission critical applications will be more productive with Cisco, giving a better ROI on their investment.
IT gains pervasive visibility across their network to over 1000 apps, without expensive or difficult to deploy probes that are often deployed in selective areas of the network. This means IT can quickly answer why an application is running slow, validate SLAs are met and verify the ROI on network services that is easier to manage and requires less equipment.
IT can scale any-to-any security from branch to branch, to data center, to cloud. Cisco has unified VPN technologies for branch, remote and mobile users, helping IT scale secure access. In addition, the branch resources are protected from malware and viruses with firewall, IPS and web security technologies, that avoid the need to backhaul through the DC.
All of this is available at the lower TCO, looking at the less capex investment upfront in purchase equipment as well as lower opex for maintenance and troubleshooting.
With ISR-AX, IT can
More successfully roll out new projects from anywhere (visibility w/o probes, predict app behavior)
Deliver better application performance to end users on any device (app prioritization and acceleration for better user experience)
Efficiently utilized the WAN at lower costs (Path control and optimization over wired and wireless; apps perform better and avoids duplicate traffic to be sent over the network)
Quickly respond to the business requirements (Lower barriers to moving apps as business required)
Scale security across all sites
