What enterprises need

Breaking SuperComm 2002 news
All the news from the show.

Up-to-the-minute news, analysis and observation.

By Tim Greene
01:33 PM EST


SuperComm's opening panel this morning featured top IT executives from major companies talking about what they see as future challenges. Some key needs:

= Building networks that are friendly to collaboration but remain secure amid increasing threats.

= Revamping networks to fit a global plan rather than a series of local networks.

= Providing varying levels of service quality to fit individual applications.

= Provisioning bandwidth in real time as needed.

= Managing bandwidth use so top priority traffic is never pinched off by less important traffic.

= Pushing broadband network access to as many sites as possible.

= Deploying wireless technology widely.

= Getting better service management from carriers.
