Question: 1. One license I want to touch on is the "right-to-use" license. This can be extremely beneficial when organizations are exploring and trying to determine the right fit. In this day in time, when there are so many products, evaluating is essential. Additionally, a timely evaluation can make all the differences in the world.

All, imagine you are test driving the latest Cisco router for your organization. You know you have 60 days to complete the evaluation.

What are some key things you should do and/or look into before the evaluation ends?

2. One of the running topics in this chapter was firewalls. Firewalls are the front door to any network as it helps to monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on rules in an access control list. The main function of a firewall is established trust between an internal network and untrusted external network whether the Internet or another organization.

Class, we know that trust in general whether people or technology must be earned. We understand the firewall as the front door into our network so how do we establish trust before allowing access through that front door. Imagine you need to work with an external organization. You want them to gain access to a web application in a zone on your network for your partners (DMZ).

What should happen or be considered before you allow the connectivity?
