Cisco connect anywhere

With its native integration in Azure, is the “Easy” button that helps to consolidate and simplify management across the on-premises data center and the popular Azure cloud environment. It enables a common policy, security and governance framework across all locations enabling consistent application segmentation, access control and isolation across varied deployment models. We expect this message to resonate with all market segments and customers.”—Bob Laliberte, Practice Director and Senior Analyst with the Enterprise Strategy Group.Looking Towards the FutureOur ACI anywhere vision is to provide the freedom of choice, agility, security, and flexibility of being able to connect and run your workloads Anywhere without compromising your security and governance mandates.With the new ‘Cloud ACI on Azure’ and ‘Cloud First ACI’, along with ‘ACI and SD-WAN’ integration, Cisco has taken another huge step forward toward delivering that vision. And there is more to come in future.Learn more in the Cisco Cloud ACI/Azure solution brief.* Future Share:

Cisco Unified Communication Manager (CUCM) is the foundation of Cisco’s UC solutions, powering enterprise voice, video, and messaging across different locations and devices. CUCM provides scalable call control and session management, seamlessly connecting remote or hybrid teams. It gives employees the mobility and flexibility to work from anywhere, consolidates multiple channels into one interface, and simplifies configuration and maintenance. CUCM scales to meet the infrastructure needs of local and global businesses, lowering operating and communications costs. It optimizes call quality, keeps communications secure, and supports essential call management and collaboration features.In this post, we take a closer look at CUCM, exploring key components, features, benefits, and more.What is CUCM?Cisco UC ComponentsBenefits of CUCMKey CUCM FeaturesHow to Buy and IntegrateAdditional UCaaS ProvidersFAQsCisco Unified Communications Manager (formerly Cisco CallManage) is an enterprise call and session management infrastructure that streamlines team communication and collaboration for today’s hybrid workforce.CUCM unites registered IP phones, mobile devices, desktop computers, and other endpoints into a single UC platform – regardless of end user location. It’s the architecture that makes it possible for teams and customers to connect on their preferred devices across multiple channels, including:VoIP TelephonyVideo and Rich-Media ConferencingInstant Team Chat Messaging with User PresenceCustomer Contact CenterExternal ApplicationsData IntegrationWith CUCM, users have the flexibility to take business calls on analog desk phones or desktop computers, send a quick chat message on a tablet, or even start a video call from a smartphone.Unified CM also powers essential call management features like call processing, dial plan administration, directory services, and more.CUCM optimizes the functionality of Cisco’s Unified Communications Suite. It ensures seamless interoperability with a variety of Cisco applications like Webex, Cisco Jabber, Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise, and more–while maintaining high availability, quality of service and security. It also operates with a variety of third-party apps like Microsoft

Compliance.Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (Virtual Appliance): The Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a security appliance that protects corporate networks and data centers. It provides users with highly secure access to data and network resources – anytime, anywhere. The remote users can use Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client on the endpoints to securely connect to the resources hosted in the Data Center or the Cloud.Cisco Next-Generation Firewall / Firepower Threat Defense (Virtual Appliance): The Cisco Firepower NGFW helps you prevent breaches, get visibility to stop threats fast, and automate operations to save time. A next-generation firewall (NGFW) is a network security device that provides capabilities beyond a traditional, stateful firewall by adding capabilities like application visibility and control, Next-Generation IPS, URL filtering, and Advanced Malware Protection (AMP).Scalable and Resilient Remote VPN architecture for AWS (Single-VPC & Multi-AZ)Due to layer-2 abstraction in the cloud, it not possible to provide native firewall high availability, firewall clustering, and VPN clustering. AWS offers native services like AWS route53, AWS route tables that enable DNS based load balancing.Figure 2: Cisco Remote Access VPN scalable design using AWS Route53Traffic Flow:The remote access VPN user initiates a VPN connection using a hostname (example: answamivpn.com), and the DNS server returns an IP address. AWS route53 monitors all the firewalls using AWS route53 health checksRemote user makes the connection to the firewallAccess the resources hosted in AWSRecommendation for the architecture shown in figure 2:Each availability zone (AZ) should have multiple firewalls (ASAv or NGFWv)Each firewall should have a dedicated
