First National Bank’s president congradulates you on quickly solving the problem. She then shares the information that she’s about to make an offer to buy Monroe’s other bank, Metropolitan Savings. She’s worried that the two banks’ networks won’t integrate easily. She isn’t sure what kinds of servers or workstations are used by the other bank, but the IT manager at Metropolitan Savings mentioned something about a network that relies on the Internet. He also mentioned that they use UNIX servers and Windows clients. What can you tell First National Bank’s president about integrating the two networks? What protocols would you recommend that she use or continue to use to facilitate the integration process?
