Should we focus on products that businesses buy? After all, that’s who we sell to now. Or, should we take our expertise in routers and switches and focus on consumer products? Finally, while Cisco is growing 15 percent per year, that’s down significantly from the 40 percent growth that we’ve had since inception, save for 2001. So we need to identify high-growth markets and products that we could design and build.

On December 6, 1967, the Department of Defense awarded a contract with the purpose of the “design and specification of a computer network”. Four months later, the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPANET) was created. By October 15, 1969, computers at the University of California-Los Angeles and Stanford were connected and communicating (Internet History from ARAPNET to Broadband, 2007) . Thus was the birth of the internet. Now, the internet is an indispensable tool that provides us with an active connection to everyone and nearly everything. However, we’ve evolved the internet and moved forward to the “internet of things” (IoT). The IoT is connecting man to machine, machine to machine, and machine to man all through “smart” devices,
