Cisco Virtual Routers: Yay, or Nay?
Posted by webhostinghand, 05-11-2012, 11:12 PM During my semester in college, My professor was telling us that Cisco is in the works of a Virtual Router and I asked myself, how does this work and how is the connection tunnel possible if there's no way to connect to the internet? I am guessing that the connection is in the cloud and that drivers would be provided to make the connection automatically work, but just this fact kind of really bothers me. I am more into the traditional forms of software and I don't believe that we should place everything into the cloud, even the fact that Windows 8 Licensing scheme is based on a monthly subscription angers me dearly. But back to topic. What are your thoughts on this? I don't have pictures or an article to show since it's behind the curtain, but this is just what I was told. Mods can move this if this was placed in the wrong area Last edited by webhostinghand; 05-11-2012 at 11:13 PM. Reason: Added Statement for Mods in case this was in the wrong area.
Posted by snapstart-chris, 05-12-2012, 01:32 AM Yeah, I guess that would work, but performance would probably suck. I'm guessing that they'll mimic what Juniper did. You have a physical router with multiple routing tables that can't see each other. Overview: http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/ind...ent&id=KB16453
