Activity 1.6.2 - Cisco RV-215W Initial Set-up

In this graded activity, you will take some time to familiarize yourself with the Cisco RV215W.

It is very important that we fully understand the capabilities, limitations, and security concerns for all of our network hardware. This process should be the very first thing we accomplish prior to purchase, configuration, and implementation of any new hardware or software onto our active network.

Identify the following items, ask yourself what they are, and how we use them (does not need to be included in your submission).

Include a description of where you were able to locate this information (Cisco website, Admin Manual, Data Sheet, etc).

Do a bit of research into these items, and describe why you feel they are important/useful to know.
