Discussion
Instructions
For this discussion, consider
the following scenario:
The CIO of the
organization for which you are developing your project network decides after
seeing the data flow maps you created that the timing is right to alter their
relationship with their primary supplier. Currently, inventory requirements are
maintained by the organization and orders are placed over the phone. The CIO
would like to give the supplier a direct connection into the organization’s
inventory system and make them responsible for maintaining stock.
Use the resources
provided as well as your own research to support your discussion of the
following:
Explain the pros and
cons of making this kind of change as part of the development of a secure
network infrastructure. How would you support or dispute this request for
change in the project scope, and address the ethical standards and implications
of this decision?
Describe 2–3
enterprise network management tools (for example, HP OpenView, Entuity) that
you have used. Would you recommend using them to manage the network for the
vendor relationship?
Be sure you correctly
cite any references you use according to APA guidelines.
