Why is Cisco important to IT.

[WasimY]

I have been asked by my IT Teacher to answer the following question in more or less one word:

Why is Cisco important in IT? Any help as I can't seem to find

 

[Aperture]

Networking?

 

[SC68Cal]

Switching

 

[Mindflux]

Moosey Fate?

 

[mkrishnan]

Infrastructure?

I'd go with "planned obsolescence," but I guess that's two words.

 

[CashGap]

Connectivity?

Standards?

FUD?

 

[Belly-laughs]

What´s thongs got to do with IT?
