What We Do
We design both logical (IP addressing, VLANs, routing) and physical (cabling, switches, Wi-Fi) network infrastructure, including topology, hardware, protocols, and services.
Key Steps
- Requirements Gathering: Users, devices, applications, security, compliance, scalability
- Topology Planning: Star, mesh, hybrid, or ring; physical layout and cabinet placement
- IP & VLAN Design: Subnetting, segmentation by department or device type
- Hardware Selection: Switches, routers, firewalls, access points, PoE, redundancy
- Security: Firewalls, DMZ, VPNs, NAC, segmentation
- Wireless Planning: AP placement, channels, security, roaming
- Monitoring & Management: SNMP, traffic analysis, centralized tools
- Documentation & Testing: Diagrams, throughput verification, failover checks
Network Types
- LAN: Office, warehouse
- WAN: Multi-site connectivity
- WLAN: Campus Wi-Fi
- Industrial Ethernet: SCADA, PLC, HMI
- Data Center: High-throughput server/storage links
Best Practices
- Redundant paths and UPS for critical devices
- 802.1X authentication and VLAN separation
- Regular monitoring, firmware updates, and documentation
Tools
- Cisco Packet Tracer, GNS3, NetBox, SolarWinds, Ekahau/NetSpot
