Cisco Pumps Up PeopleSoft Business Apps Cisco and PeopleSoft Inc. are integrating their core technologies in an effort to give mission-critical applications a new status on corporate networks. The companies last week announced an alliance that will let Cisco's network hardware, including routers and switches, recognize PeopleSoft applications traffic and give it priority. neil. here's a follow-up letter to the ed to the above-referenced techweb piece you posted. sounds like mr. jacobson needs to take a number and get in line behind mcnealy, barksdale, et al. -chris. ----- InternetWeek August 24, 1998 Dangerous Liaison?
