The Corporate Intranet
Intranets offer a number of business benefits:
– Dispersed locations can be connected, flexibly and cost-effectively
– Resources can be centrally provided and managed
– Information can be made instantly available, company-wide
– Changes are easy to implement
– New sites, services and users can be easily added.
Because the IPNC includes RAS, Data Service, WAN and IP routing facilities,
they can be used to build an intranet spread across multiple locations. All users,
regardless of location, have access to centralised applications, data and services,
and additional information and services can be provided by means of a local web
server, that can be browsed in the same way as a public web site.
An example of an intranet is illustrated in the diagram below.
