Cisco Systems emerged from the effects of global economic slowdown in its third fiscal quarter ended May 1 it announced President and CEO, John Chambers, said he probably was the company’s best quarter ever.

Revenue rose 27 percent from a year earlier to U.S. $ 10,400,000,000 while net income increased 61 percent to $ 2,200,000,000, or $ 0.37 per share, based on generally accepted accounting principles. Excluding certain charges, Cisco earned $ 0.42 per share, well above the consensus of analysts expected $ 0.39 per share, according to a poll by Thomson Reuters. Analysts had forecast revenue of $ 10,240,000,000.

In a statement, Chambers said Cisco had registered a record revenue and earnings per share and returned to a balanced growth trend throughout the world had not seen since before the recession. He also said that Cisco is gaining market share and commanding a greater share of customer spending.

“The financial results were outstanding,” Chambers said on a conference call with analysts after the report.

The strong growth spread almost all over the world, “said Chambers. Of the 15 largest country markets for Cisco, all but one showed an increase in orders and 12 were registered order growth of more than 20 percent, he said. All lines of the main company product also advanced, with revenues of switching up to 40 percent, 23 percent of routing and advanced technologies – such as storage networking, wireless, and security – a 18 percent the previous year.

Orders for consumer goods increased more rapidly, more than 50 percent worldwide, but the other categories also increased, including service providers by 30 percent and companies at 26 percent, the company said .

Cisco is convinced that this trend will continue, forecasting year on year revenue growth between 25 percent and 28 percent in the current quarter. “Technology spending is clearly in the fire,” said Chambers at a time during the call.

The company also plans to continue hiring more employees, mostly in sales and in groups to fight the last markets in which Cisco is competing, he said. During the third quarter, the company hired 1,000 people as part of an increase of between 2,000 and 3,000 planned for the coming quarters. The company also received nearly 1,700 employees through the acquisition of Tandberg, a company video Norwegian company completed the acquisition last month.

The economy bottomed out early last year, during the third quarter of Cisco’s fiscal 2009 and turned the next quarter, Chambers said. “Our initial optimism about the economic crisis … proved to be very accurate,” he said.

Even his concern about the debt crisis in Europe that have emerged in recent weeks have not dampened the growth prospects there, Chambers said. But he cautioned that economic conditions and markets could “jump” over the next year or so.

As a market leader in true IP telephony, Cisco is set to unmatched data end to end VoIP solutions to be delivered, and provides a complete, stylish, fully equipped with the portfolio for enterprise IP phone and Small and medium business customers. Cisco IP phones provide unmatched levels of integrated business functionality and converged communications features beyond today’s conventional systems voice.

When communication is critical to your phone system is the choice of Cisco. Because this is not a partial review site, I would say communications systems cheaper, which for now is less ambitious, but nonetheless, the second class will. The recent increase competition in the sales market has drasticaly Cisco prices used and refurbished Cisco equipment.

I recommend that you always search for the equipment used first when you’re locked into a contract with Cisco reseller, they can cancel their warranty if they find out you’ve used the devices in your system. The general equipment damage your system, but he wants to Cisco resellers to sell new devices, Cisco continues to make money. If you use a PBX system or SIP, we have completely

We found more information. It turns out that the Router Alert packets not the cause of the use of loud, but mearly a piece of the larger puzzle.

The problem of CPU usage has become so unbearable that something had to be done, and unfortunately, the modification of all Macintosh systems on the network via mDNS was not an option. Some systems have been altered without significant impact, but it could be because the number of systems changed less than 1% of the systems formed in this campus. Instead something else could be tried … Somthing on the web …

Be certain that the previous repair was correct, and with the assurance that nothing but the production was GhostCast use of multicast, multicast routing is enabled on the switch-off. It was a bold and rather drastic, but it should solve the problem, right? Wrong. The number of packages to beat the CPU with the Router Alert option has remained constant, and the CPU usage still behave as if it was before. If I thought thiss a little more, I realized that the movement when used on the multicast address 224.0.0.x/24 area remain in place to ensure that trade will deteriorate further.

The next step was to access a list of this group to create blocks mDNS the destination address. After that is created, it added a LCD port on each switch port customer response. Suddenly, we now have a real change of status. CPU usage rose 100% to 21% if the serial interface command has been completed.

The big question here is why this work, and what has caused the bad performance switch? The 4500 is suited to a much higher volume of multicast traffic, and distributed processing hardware multicast. It turns out the area for the local 224.0.0.0/24 L2 multicast, such as routing protocols, routers, all the guests, etc. This fact has been reserved for 4500 to determine all multicast traffic to every email address in this field directly on the CPU, the weather, it is necessary / was fired or not. I think an incoming multicast filtering 224.0.0.0/24 should be a prerequisite for the security of each network to DoS accidental or deliberate cons infrastructure to prevent the weather is officially independent multicast in use on web!

Well, I’m finally, my service Techtorial first time this year the company is good. The long flights and a lack of sleep does not stop many from attending the pre-conference techtorials this year. Things seem relatively normal this year comapred to the last two, but some hunting sccavenger this year, it seems, tapes and certified Cisco Powered room (accommodation and coffee!)

What I miss most USB flash drives, Cisco has released last year. It was an enormous amount of information and participants do not have to go find him and waste precious bandwidth to download. for only 13 minutes from the end of the last 40% of the file is 100 MB!
