New network Design Analysis, Including Security

The new network design has been implemented to increase data throughput, set high availability within each location serviced and owned by the company and to increase security across the WAN and LAN. We will look at the overall design and its advantages, then look at the individual sites and outline the technologies implemented.

WAN Topology Overview

RTC-Group, Inc. owns property in Atlanta, Florida, New York and Canada. The Organization requires that the headquarters offices in Atlanta intercepts all customer transactions from the stores in New York and Canada but can also share and administer the branch office in Orlando. Our team decided to use T3 connections using Frame Relay to route traffic between the sites. Frame Relay is widely used in companies that span internationally. The advantages of Frame relay are:

* Reduced internetworking cost (in both hardware and carrier tariffs)

* Increased performance with reduced network complexity

* Increased interoperability via international standards

Since RTC has companies outside the continental United States Frame Relay was an obvious choice. Standards across borders and at home are imperative to have to ensure data flow and communication. Below is an IP table for the Corporate office, Branch Office and stores.

New routers were implemented to better server security and redundancy throughout the WAN. Initially, the WAN was configured with only one router at each site in the...
