Product Overview
The Cisco 805 router can connect a remote office to a corporate office or a small
professional office to an Internet service provider (ISP).
In the remote-office-to-corporate-office network, the remote office is typically a small
professional office that is part of a larger corporation, such as a real estate office. Although
a majorityof itsdata mightexist at the remoteoffice itself, the remoteoffice might also need
to exchange data with its larger corporate office. As a result, the remote office needs a
connection to the corporate office.
In the small-office-to-ISP network, the small office is typically a small, independent
professional office, such as a small architectural firm that needs to access information from
the Internet.
