What is the purpose of the Cisco Enterprise Architecture?
It replaces the three-layer hierarchical model with a flat network approach.
It provides an enterprise-wide system network architecture that helps protect, optimize, and grow the network
infrastructure that supports the business processes of a company.
It provides services and functionality to the core layer by grouping various components into a single component that is
located in the access layer.
It reduces overall network traffic by grouping server farms, the management server, corporate intranet, and e-commerce
routers in the same layer.
