Describe the problems with the Hierarchical Design Model that Cisco's Enterprise Composite Model has been designed to address
The network is a mixture of newer and older technologies, it can be difficult to support and maintain. Outages and poor performance are a constant source of trouble for network administrators.

Describe the key WAN Physical layer protocol used in todays Enterprise WAN networks
EIA/TIA-232-This protocol allows signal speeds of up to 64 kb/s on a 25-pin D-connector over short distances. It was formerly known as RS-232. EIA/TIA-449/530-This protocol is a faster (up to 2 Mb/s) version of EIA/TIA-232. It uses a 36-pin D-connector and is capable of longer cable runs. There are several versions. This standard is also known as RS422 and RS-423. EIA/TIA-612/613-This standard describes the High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) protocol, which provides access to services up to 52 Mb/s on a 60-pin D-connector.

V.35-This is the ITU-T standard for synchronous communications between a network access device and a packet network. Originally specified to support data rates of 48 kb/s, it now supports speeds of up to 2.048 Mb/s using a 34-pin rectangular connector.
X.21-This protocol is an ITU-T standard for synchronous digital communications. It uses a 15-pin Dconnector.
