Summary The Cisco DistributedDirector leverages Cisco IOS software and the intelligence in the network to automatically and efficiently pick the best server for the user, using a single hostname or DNS subdomain name. This eliminates the need for end users to choose a server from a list of possible sites. Instead, DistributedDirector presents the end user with a single link that transparently directs the end user to the best server. DistributedDirector is the only product available that communicates with the network infrastructure to make intelligent traffic redirection decisions. With DistributedDirector, Internet traffic to dispersed server sites remains localized.
Customers benefit from improved Internet service performance and transmissions cost savings.
Additionally, end users get more productive use of time and resources by being directed to servers that are actually available to provide timely responses to their requests. Availability and Ordering Cisco DistributedDirector is available today. Part numbers can be found in Table 2. DRP server agents are only required only when DRP metrics are used. Inc.
