Network Planning and Design Solutions

Network Infrastructure Planning & Design

Network planning and design is a comprehensive process that involves creating a voice or data network that service a specific need. Here are some of the steps involved:

Business Objectives: Determining the purpose, goals and objectives to be accomplished. Who are the stakeholders and sponsors? Who will control the budgeting requirements to procure the resources; and who will be the owner representative involved in making the final decisions.
Infrastructure Planning: Determining where to place components and how each device with be connected on the network. This involves using graph theory to optimize the placement of core devices, switches, routers, firewall, and appliances.
Network-Synthesis: Deciding the sizing of each component based on performance criteria like response time, traffic shaping, QoS, Latency, and filtering. This step uses network optimization to create a traffic routing plan for moving data across the network.
Network Realization: Ensuring the network meets capacity requirements, security, and reliability. Multi-commodity workflow optimization is used to calculate an actual traffic flow, device configuration, and physical connectivity.
Topological Design: Logical design to study and determine where to place each component to optimize performance and where the access devices will be for placed for connecting users. This involves using graphical representation and practical device layout to optimize the placement of core switches, routers, and access devices.

The planning and design process might include forecasting traffic intensity, determining latency, bandwidth, as well as integrating security, resilience, and scalability into the design. The overall planning criteria always takes into consideration the number of endpoints and physical devices that will be connected to the network, and traffic utilization.

Network Infrastructure Assessment

A network assessment is a common tool used by IT departments and managed IT providers like Sagiss. In short, it is a program that catalogs every device and piece of software connected to a particular IT network.

In addition to its use as a diagnostic tool for troubleshooting, network assessments are also used to connect support providers with potential new clients. Many managed service providers, including Sagiss, offer complimentary network assessments to small businesses. This an excellent way of cataloging every device that requires support and ensuring the business owner has complete information about the state of their IT infrastructure.

The assessment program compiles data about your network infrastructure and then organizes that data into meaningful feedback. The Sagiss Network Assessment breaks down the information into two categories, Network Overview and Security Status.
