 | | If, as appears to be the case, the military is moving to IP for reasons of cost and efficiency, âitâs probably advisable to move to IP as quickly as possible, bearing in mind two issues,â said Tom Nolle, president of CIMI, a technology consulting and analysis company. |
 | | Security issues will play little role in much of the traffic carried on military networks, Nolle noted, estimating that 60 percent to 70 percent of the traffic is similar to the traffic carried on private sector networks. |
 | | At the rate the military moves, in five years, the great majority of non-IP equipment will be gone and in 10 years, it will likely all be gone,â Nolle said. |
