Ericsson India Pvt Ltd : Managed Workplace Light

This project was implemented for Ericsson employees who were sourced from
Airtel to Ericsson roles after a strategic deal between both the companies
(managed service contract). The aim of the project was to make sure that the
in-sourced users could continue to sit at Airtel's premises working on the
Airtel technical platforms, switches and products while also being a true part
of the Ericsson organization. The challenge over here was that Ericsson
(in-sourced) employees had to access both Airtel network as well as the Ericsson
network (knowledge database, Email, intranet and software patches) for network
control and management. Airtel and Ericsson worked closely to review the
situation and worked out a solution at both ends to ensure that their employees
are able to access the network resources in the most efficient manner. The key
technology used in this deployment was a secure SSL VPN solution from Juniper
which was used to connect both offices on a single virtual LAN environment. This
allowed users access to remote equipment and resources securely and in a very
convenient way.
