Ad hoc networks are emerging to deliver IP-based voice, video, and data to users operating beyond the reach of traditional fixed-network infrastructures. Ad hoc networking offers compelling advantages in many environments, but there are still some challenges. Foremost among these challenges, is the need to efficiently merge IP routing and mobile radio technologies.

Cisco Mobile Ready Net is a solution architecture that defines Cisco's vision for the mobile network of the future - a network that continuously adapts, enabling people to connect and communicate how, when, and where they need to, without relying on pre-defined fixed infrastructure.
