In 5-6 pages double spaced (MLA format), identify a specific piece of hardware or Internet infrastructure
to research. For the purposes of this assignment simply choosing ”Cisco Routers” won’t suffice, instead
one would choose the Cisco ASR 9904 Router. The goal would be to do research into the details of the
device and how it fits into an Enterprise environment. In addition, special emphasis should be placed on
distinguishing the hardware/infrastructure you chose differs from similar enterprise solutions. In regards to

comparison, but to try to understand the features and represent the real-world consequences of your chosen
hardware/infrastructure to enterprise operations.
Spelling, grammar, and neatness reflect on your professionalism and quality of work. Please proofread you
