Enterprise Network Documentation

A physical topology map uses icons to document the location of hosts, networking devices, and media.

Enterprise Network Documentation

A logical topology map groups hosts by network usage, regardless of physical location.

Enterprise Network Documentation

As the network grows or changes however, the documentation is not always updated. Blueprints can be marked up, or redlined, to show the changes. The modified diagram is known as an as-built

An as-built diagram documents how a network was actually constructed which may differ from the original plans.

Network Operations Center (NOC)

Most enterprise networks have a Network Operations Center (NOC) that allows for central management and monitoring of all network resources. NOC is sometimes referred to as a Data Center

Network Operations Center (NOC)

NOCs also provide centralized resources such as servers and data storage. Servers in the NOC are usually clustered together, creating a server farm. The Server Farm is a single resource but, in fact, provides two functions: Backup. Load Balancing. The servers in the farm may be rack-mounted and interconnected by very high-speed switches (Gigabit Ethernet or higher).

Network Operations Center (NOC)

Data Storage or Network Attached Storage (NAS) Groups large numbers of disk drives that are directly attached to the network and can be used by any server. A NAS device is typically attached to an Ethernet network and is assigned its own IP address. A more sophisticated version of NAS is Storage Area Network (SAN). A SAN is a high-speed network that interconnects different types of data storage devices over a LAN or WAN.

Network Operations Center (NOC)

Equipment in the enterprise NOC is usually mounted in racks. In large NOCs, racks are usually floor-to-ceiling mounted and may be attached to each other. The most common rack width is 19 inches (48.26 cm). The vertical space that the equipment occupies is measured in Rack Units (RUs). A Unit equals 1.75 inches (4.4cm). For example, a 2U chassis is 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) high.

Network Operations Center (NOC)

In an enterprise NOC, thousands of cables may enter and exit the facility. Structured cabling creates an organized cabling system that is easily understood by installers, network administrators, and any other technicians who work with cables.

Telecommunication Room Design and Considerations

In practice, however, most users connect to a switch in a telecommunications room, which is some distance from the NOC. The telecommunications room is also referred to as a wiring closet or intermediate distribution facility (IDF).

Telecommunication Room Design and Considerations

Many IDFs connect to a Main Distribution Facility (MDF) using an extended star design. The MDF is usually located in the NOC or centrally located within the building.

Supporting the Enterprise Edge

Hc vin cng ngh thng tin Bach Khoa - Website: www.bkacad.com

Service Provider at the Point-of-Presence

At the outer edge of the enterprise network is the Pointof-Presence, or POP, which provides an entry point for services to the enterprise network. Externally-provided services coming in through the POP include Internet access, wide area connections, and telephone services (PSTN).

Security Considerations at the Enterprise Edge

The edge is the point of entry for outside attacks and is a point of vulnerability For example, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. An organization can deploy a firewall , and security appliances with intrusion detection system (IDS) and intrusion prevention system (IPS) at the edge to protect the network.

Revieving Routing and Switching

Hc vin cng ngh thng tin Bach Khoa - Website: www.bkacad.com

Router Hardware

One important device in the Distribution Layer of an enterprise network is a router. All hosts on a local network specify the IP address of the local router interface in their IP configuration. This router interface is the default gateway.

Router Hardware

Hc vin cng ngh thng tin Bach Khoa - Website: www.bkacad.com

Router Hardware

Two methods exist for connecting a PC to a network device for configuration and monitoring tasks: out-ofband and in-band management. Out-of-band management is used for initial configuration or when a network connection is unavailable. Configuration using out-of-band management requires: Direct connection to console or AUX port Terminal emulation client

Hc vin cng ngh thng tin Bach Khoa - Website: www.bkacad.com

Router Hardware

In-band management is used to monitor and make configuration changes to a network device over a network connection. Configuration using in-band management requires: At least one network interface on the device to be connected and operational Telnet, SSH, or HTTP to access a Cisco device
