The ability to manage both its LANs and the new SAN with the same software (the 
CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution) has enabled LBB to protect its previous 
investments in Cisco equipment and minimize training costs. Because the people 
responsible for storage and network management are now using the same software 
on one device instead of two, albeit with separate controls, they can work more 
closely together than before and are becoming more effective as a result.
“Most of the benefits we are enjoying today, although significant, are related to 
IT,” says Ritz. “However, the introduction of the storage area network is only the 
first phase of a larger plan. When we go into the second phase and introduce a 
document management system, we expect to see even greater time savings and 
productivity gains.” 
Next Steps
To improve application performance and continue increasing productivity, LBB 
intends to virtualize some of the physical servers, which are currently hosting its 
applications. The Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches will provide an excellent 
platform for virtualization, because they are part of the network foundation for 
the 
, an architectural approach that helps 
organizations transform their data centers to better achieve their business goals.
