3- Network LAN Design with VoIP and Wireless Services

Introduction

The assignment for week three called for the creation of a “detailed LAN design of network with VoIP services, Wireless services, protocols, devices, and interconnectivity, with WAN” (UMUC, n.d.). According to the assignment document (UMUC, n.d.), “this section must include but is not limited to:

· Equipment List

· Hierarchical IP scheme and VLAN

· Link IP addresses

· High Level Diagram

· Voice and Wireless Design

The network details were generated from the information provided in the Case Study World Wide Trading Company document. (UMUC, n.d.)

Equipment List

The company has provided a list of requirements that must be met in order for the newly designed network to meet the company's current and long term business plans. Requirements that impact the LAN design directly include the need for much faster, higher performance network services. This requires a design that not only provides for higher available bandwidth, but also is designed in such a way as to reduce congestion that can occur due to issues such as excessive broadcast traffic, multicast flooding and routing loops. Another essential requirement is scalability and provision for 100% growth, so that the network is capable of supporting the business without major additions as the company expands to over twice the current size. Modularity is another requirement, which would ensure that when expansion is needed, or network changes are required, the company can make those changes with minimal disruption to network performance and the business. Migration provision to IPv6, while not an immediate need, must also be built into the network infrastructure so that as the use of IPv6 becomes more prevalent, the company can leave IPv4 behind with minimal business disruption and expense. Centralized network administration with DHCP services, hierarchical IP address scheme with route aggregation, integrated support for VoIP, streaming video/media support, and a solid, layered defense in-depth security approach. A thorough and detailed plan is necessary in order to accommodate these requirements.

The equipment chosen for network design that meets all of the above requirements must be very high performance, have double the number of ports required currently by the business, integrate well into a layered network structure that facilitates centralized administration, and support high availability configurations. The Cisco product line supports all of these attributes and building a network infrastructure using equipment from a single vendor is a widely used strategy because it ensures seamless hardware, protocol and interface integration so that the network performs as a single unit from the end user perspective which is highly desirable.

The devices listed in the following table will easily accommodate twice the current 250 device demand within the company while also delivering high performance for VoIP and streaming media applications, high availability, and wireless integration, along with the other aforementioned requirements.

The network design is focused on centralized administration for the purpose of decreasing administrative overhead by enabling a lower number of IT staff to maintain the network. All network services such as DHCP, DNS, Active Directory and software maintenance and deployment services (for example) are managed in a centralized yet hierarchical configuration. The network design also delivers a high degree of redundancy. Every switch within the infrastructure has dual uplink connections to the network infrastructure. Each switch is also equipped with dual power supplies, and the network itself is configured in a partial mesh so that there is no single point of failure that could cause business disruption for the company. In addition, each chassis switch (the Cisco 4500 and 6500 series) have dual supervisor engines so that if one engine fails, this fault tolerant configuration enables the switch to continue operating. To fulfill the security requirements of the company, the network is equipped with a Cisco ASA 5500 series firewall that features IPS services so that would be intrusions can be detected and quickly shutdown while administrators are alerted to the attack. Each department is configured with its own VLAN, and ACLs are configured between the VLANs so that only authorized traffic is allowed to pass between VLANs on the network. Should the company deem it necessary, the 4500 and 6500 series switches can also be equipped with IPS supervisor engines so that the core and distribution layers of the network are also protected by IPS (providing yet another layer of defense against intruders). The 3850 series switches feature an integrated wireless controller which enables seamless wireless mobility throughout the wireless networking area within the building. All switches will be configured with RSTP to prevent network loop issues, EIGRP to automate routing table population and maintenance (with fast convergence), and route summation employed on a per subnet basis for efficiency. All switches also support IGMP, IGMP snooping, and PIM protocols for layer 2 and 3 multicast forwarding, with PoE and VoIP services supported at the access layer for IP telecommunications services. Finally, each switch features modular capability, enabling the company to add new features to the network in the future should the need arise.

In order to effectively manage the new network infrastructure, a naming convention plan must be drafted that provides IT staff (and users) with a logical, understandable means for identifying network devices. Following is a table that provides such a plan:

Network IT	50	50	128	9	172.16.0.1-126/25

VLAN Name	Location/Dept	VLAN Assignment
Default VLAN	Unused	VLAN 1
Management VLAN	President, Executive Assistant, VP NW, VP SW, VP NE, VP SE, CEO IT, CEO FIN, CEO HR	VLAN 3
Staff VLAN	Staff/Reception	VLAN 5
Broker VLAN	Broker	VLAN 7
Black Hole VLAN	Vacant/Future Growth	VLAN 9
Voice VLAN (VOIP)	All Departments	VLAN 10

The WWTC VLAN assignment will follow industry best practices in alleviating traffic by designation of user, position, and type. Additionally, the default VLAN assigned to all Cisco switches, VLAN 1, will remain unassigned as any default settings that persist can be a potential target for outside attack.

Voice traffic will be segregated to its own VLAN in order to compensate for the required switch configurations that favor voice traffic including quality of service (QoS), full duplex, and other such configurations advantageous to voice and/or streaming traffic.

According to the case study diagram, WWTC will require a management VLAN for upper-level executives, a staff VLAN for regular staff, a designated VLAN for brokers, a voice VLAN for VOIP traffic, and a black hole VLAN to ensure all unused ports slated for future growth are not used in any illicit manner.

The chart above details the VLAN number assignment for the aforementioned configuration. The Black Hole VLAN covers any amount of users exceeding the required number, as this number represents current users. The management VLAN applies to any executive (President, VP, CEO), executive assistant or manager within a particular VP’s department.

Configurations at the switch port level will allow for traffic between VLANs via trunking in the case that WWTC wishes to designate each VP’s individual staff as its own department, and communication is required interdepartmentally. This configuration addresses the concern regarding regular staff obtaining sensitive company data and housing it on their systems. VLAN segregation by employee level helps ensure traffic with specific sensitivity is only shared with others whose position should allow them to access such information.

Link IP Addresses

As part of the design process, it is important to plan out the link IP addresses that will be used to connect your network infrastructure. These links will be static connections between devices that will allow them to communicate effectively and securely, which is a requirement of WWTC. The links also provide redundancy so that if any single or multiple devices were to be lost, the network would be able to continue to operate aside from the immediate device connections. Below you will find the corresponding tables that provide the link information for the core, distribution and access layers of the modular network design. The network is designed as a mesh to provide recovery from multiple failures, should it occur. Additionally, in order to efficiently use IP addresses, each network is a /30 in order to provide only the 2 device IP addresses that are required of these small subnets. Unfortunately, due to the design of the IP Hierarchy, it will not be possible to use summarization points in this design.

Voice Design

Due to the rapid growth of World-Wide Trading Company, a new office block in New York has been acquired. In order to allow the Stock Brokers to achieve their business goals by offering reliable, clear and seamless communications, a new Voice over IP telephone network will be implemented. Every aspect of the business has been reviewed and the VoIP network will be sure to be a valuable asset and exceed the expectations of WWTC.

World-Wide Trading Company has several specific design requirements that relate to the Voice over IP network. First, the system should be fully integrated with the data network and also the entire network should be in a centralized location. The network also needs to be modular and scalable as they are expecting massive growth. Another consideration needs to be the reduction of incoming telephone lines from the phone company to reduce costs. And lastly, provide for video conferencing and multi-casting services.

In order to meet and exceed the requirements of WWTC, the following proposed items have been recommended for purchase. The servers we are recommending are the HP ProLiant DL320 G8 which are fully compatible with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) and the Cisco Unity Connection voicemail system software. Redundancy has been accounted for with dual power supplies, and quad 10GbE Ethernet ports. Two servers would be allocated to hosting the CUCM, and two servers would be allocated to host the Cisco Unity voicemail system. By having redundant servers in place for each system, the voice network is capable of surviving a catastrophic failure. The Cisco voicemail is also able to provide redundancy by running in an active-active configuration. (Cisco Unity, 2011) The servers will fit seamlessly into the new network architecture and be fully integrated into the data network. (HP, 2015). The telephone sets are the newer supported models, the 7942G is recommended for the bulk of the employees, with 3 7962G sets with expansion modules for the reception areas. These expansion modules will give the receptionists the ability to add 24 extra lines, hotlines or speed-dials which can help speed service when transferring. (Cisco 7915, nd.). The phones are high-fidelity wideband audio which provide more frequency range as compared to traditional analog phones. This results in users being less fatigued and able to understand customers better when on the phone. (Cisco 7942G, nd.). Another great feature with these sets, are the XML services that are compatible with these types of phones. They can greatly enhance the user experience by allowing you to have world clocks, watch stocks, check the weather and convert currency right on your phone.(XML Services, 2016). And of course they come with a full range of features that you would expect from a traditional phone such as speed dials, call forwarding, 3 way conferencing as well as having a built in switch port to provide connectivity to a co-located PC, reducing costs of having to install extra cabling. Power can be provided directly from the switches using Power over Ethernet, or with an additional power supply. (Cisco Portfolio, nd.) These phones can also allow headset communications as well as speaker-phone. (Cisco 7962G, nd.). To go along with state of the art communications capabilities, we are also recommending the Linksys Edge Video conferencing equipment for the conference rooms to provide high definition video conferencing abilities to the conference rooms. (Video Conferencing, nd.). This will be an important feature to bridge the gap as the headquarters is located overseas, and bring people and ideas together as if they were in the same office. The voice network is scalable to well over 100% of its current capability, and additional phones/licenses can be purchased as the company eventually expands. Another great feature of this state of the art voice network, is that it will eliminate the need for having multiple separate phone lines ran into the building from the phone company, instead this system will rely on the internet connections from the ISP, which will reduce overall operating costs. This design recommends having two separate ISP accounts from different providers, with one of the ISP accounts used as redundancy. In case of a WAN outage from one ISP, the network will failover to the other ISP account. If both of the ISP accounts were to fail, the voice network will then failover to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) through the Voice Enabled Router. This redundant design will ensure that if one route of communications is not available, it will automatically divert traffic to the other.
