Target Organization
The organization that I have chosen for a network implementation plan, will be Ace Mortgage. Ace Mortgage is an organization that gives mortgage advances to people in 3 moderate size markets. The organization will need a network that will meet the organization's requests and their customers. They require the capacity to work across the organizations with a specific end goal to guarantee that they are all centered around a solitary objective and to guarantee that they are likewise …show more content…
The purposed network architecture will consist of four deployable tough boxed server stack’s which will contain two Dell 1130 1U Rugged Dart Frogs server blades sporting two Intel Xeon E5645 Processors that has 12M Cache, 2.40 GHZ operation speed. Each blade has “96 Gigabyte of DDR3 Memory operating at 1333MHz LV, two 40 Gigabyte 2.5 Serial ATA II Solid State Drives, ten Network Interface cards (NICs), an Intel Gigabit Quad Port Ethernet adapter, using a LSI 3081E-R add-in RAID controller” (Dell, 2014). Each Stack will also have a NetApps Flash Accel Server (FAS) 2240 unified storage device for Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network-attached Storage. This storage device will contain a “dual controller which will support 24 hard drives (12 per controller) for a total of 576 terabyte of storage for all kinds of data. The FAS 2240 will also have 12 gigabyte of ECC memory 8 onboard GbE and 4 onboard SAS ports, 2 dual-port 8/4/2 gigabyte FC disk and 2 Dual port 10GbE Ethernet adapters” (NetApp, 2014). All four stacks will also have a Cisco Catalyst 2960-48TC 48 port “Fast Ethernet remote manageable switches with 32 megabyte of flash memory, 8K MAC address table entries that uses SSL encryption as well as having the secure shell (SSH), RADIUS, and TACACS authentication methods” (Vology, 2014). Each server stack will …show more content…
The unit will need a Active Directory DOMAIN which will use a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to any and all connecting systems. Once the Active Directory has been configured then Organizational units must be established. To connect this DOMAIN to the outside world Ace Mortgage will have to establish a DNS account with the national Communication Center at Fort Gordon and then setup a DNS server connection to publish the units IP routing schema to the outside agencies. Since this network infrastructure will be on a classified closed network there will be no requirement for WINS services. The main protocols that are already built inside of Windows server is Internet Protocols (IP) Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) User Datagram Protocol (UDP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) are just a few named. During the configuration of the network switches and routers the ports that these protocols use to communication must be opened for sending and receiving packets through those ports or nothing will work this is known as the IP routing scheme. Other protocols that are considered lower level are Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Internet Control Message Protocol
