Cisco patches serious vulnerabilities in small business RV Series routers After criticizing it, Cisco joins Open Compute From the Archives: New Juniper CEO: Meet the real Shaygan Kheradpir From FiOS to the CIO Hall of Fame to Twitter: Kheradpir makes for an interesting choice by Juniper. Read More Juniper Networks doubles down on virtualization Cloud computing, mobility, and the Internet of Things have raised the bar on network agility. Service providers require an agile network to rapidly deliver services that can create new revenue streams. Network functions virtualization (NFV) has been viewed as a panacea to enable service providers to shift to a more agile network.Juniper Networks has been among the most aggressive network vendors when it comes to NFV and has a robust set of virtual security offerings available today. This week, Juniper took a huge step forward with its NFV strategy by announcing it had virtualized its flagship product, the MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routing platform. The MX series has long been the workhorse for Juniper and is widely deployed in every region of the globe. It is arguable the company's most successful product ever.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More Juniper wires up WLAN deal with Aruba Juniper Networks and Aruba Networks this week said they have agreed to offer converged wired and wireless networks combining their respective products. Read More Cisco, Arista disaggregating? Should Cisco and Arista make like Cumulus Networks and develop versions of their operating systems for bare metal hardware? If the market shifts dramatically toward white box switching from brand name networking, they may have to.If they want to appeal to hyperscale cloud providers attracted to disaggregated networking elements, they might have to. And even though bare metal versions of Cisco NX-OS and Arista EOS would run on merchant silicon-based ODM hardware, the products would be an attempt to counter and mitigate the incursion of white box switches in their high-end, high-value accounts.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More Cisco patches serious vulnerabilities in small business RV Series routers Cisco Systems released patches for its small business RV Series routers and firewalls to address vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands and overwrite files on the vulnerable devices.The affected products are Cisco RV120W Wireless-N VPN Firewall, Cisco RV180 VPN Router, Cisco RV180W Wireless-N Multifunction VPN Router, and Cisco RV220W Wireless Network Security Firewall. However, firmware updates have been released only for the first three models, while the fixes for Cisco RV220W are expected later this month.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More After criticizing it, Cisco joins Open Compute Cisco has joined the Open Compute Project, a Facebook-driven effort to develop open source servers and switches, 16 months after criticizing it. At that time, Cisco CEO John Chambers said OCP has "weaknesses" that Cisco can exploit.Chambers said efforts like Facebook's to commoditize and wring cost out of hardware purchases will open up opportunities for Cisco to provide solutions that are better tailored to specific customer needs: I think this will just be one more series of good challenges that Cisco will say 'what's the business objective on.' There are a lot of weaknesses to the area -- we're going to go back and solve customer problems. If you're standalone anything, this is going to be a hard market to play in. Anything white label, where the decision is cost or opex, you're going to lose.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More
