SERVER FARM

Managing and securing numerous distributed servers at various locations within a business network is difficult. so, we used ---> centralizes servers in server farms. Server farms typically located in computer rooms and data centers.

benefits:

• Network traffic enters and leaves the server farm at a defined point. This arrangement makes it easier to secure, filter, and prioritize traffic.

• Redundant, high-capacity links can be installed to the servers as well as between the server farm network and the main LAN. This configuration is more cost-effective than attempting to provide a similar level of connectivity to servers distributed throughout the network.

• Load balancing and failover can be provided between servers and between networking devices.

• The number of high-capacity switches and security devices is reduced, helping to lower the cost of providing services.

HIERARCHICAL DESIGN

Goals of the Core Layer

The Core Layer design enables the efficient, high-speed transfer of data between one section of the network and another. The primary design goals at the Core Layer are to:

.... Provide 100% uptime...(availability)
.... Maximize throughput... (availability also)
.... Facilitate network growth...(scalability)


Core Layer Technologies

• Routers or multilayer switches that combine routing and switching in the same device
• Redundancy and load balancing
• High-speed and aggregate links
• Routing protocols that scale well and converge quickly, such as Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol

Distribution Layer Routing

The Distribution Layer represents a routing boundary between the Access Layer and the Core Layer. It also serves as a connection point between remote sites and the Core Layer.

The Access Layer is commonly built using Layer 2 switching technology. The Distribution Layer is built using Layer 3 devices. Routers or multilayer switches, located at the Distribution Layer, provide many functions that are critical for meeting the goals of the network design.

These goals include:

• Filtering and managing traffic flows
• Enforcing access control policies
• Summarizing routes before advertising the routes to the Core
• Isolating the Core from Access Layer failures or disruptions
• Routing between Access Layer VLANs

- Distribution Layer devices are also used to manage queues and prioritize traffic before transmission through the campus core.

Access Layer Management

Improving the manageability of the Access Layer is a major concern for the network designer. Access Layer management is crucial due to:

The increase in the number and types of devices connecting at the Access Layer

The introduction of wireless access points into the LAN

Designing for Manageability

In addition to providing basic connectivity at the Access Layer, the designer needs to consider:

• Naming structures
• VLAN architecture
• Traffic patterns
• Prioritization strategies

step to design a network and basic network requirements. ~

step required to design a good network.

• verify the technical needs.
• determine the features and function required to meet need identified above.
• perform a network readiness assessment.
• create a solution and site acceptance assessment.
• create a project plan.

basic network requirements

1. scalability

- to ensure that the network are able to growth or upgrade. mean that, if customer need to expand their network or business, the network that are applied before can be upgraded and expands.

2. availability

- network must be up 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. failure of a single link shouldn't impact the network performance. ~

3. security

- a good network design must be implemented with security such as firewall, IDS, IPS lagii apa ea..? emm. antivirus and so on..;p

4. manageability

- network that are complex will not work efficiently and effective. a staff management must be required to manage network.

mental dan fizikal... :P

Netrider ari tu x der rezeki.. x der dalam senarai top 10 pon. cik mimah (lect) cakap, saya no 11.. x to ler btol ke x.. ~ err. tekanan la jugak dengaq. x per la. redho saje. da x der rezeki nk wat cemana. but still puas ati sebab dapat markah round2 (praktikal) antara yg highest. heee. 9 org dapat markah terbaik. 3 org dari PUO.saya, faris dan nizam.. Alhamdulillah.. teori K.O.. kalo x, maybe boleyh bantu dapat top 10. hee.

da settle Netrider, skang nga fokus final exam. soalan sumer selaras seluruh Politeknik. doakan yg terbaik.. insyaAllah..

abes final, fokus CCNA. bootcamp 3 ari, then test.9 MEI. waa. tatot2.. bole ke x nak lulus. ;P ..

11 MEi plak, start kursus 3P. dapat course Council Network Security Certification (ENSA & ECSS).. waaa..tekanan btoi la tera nk tggu abeh sem ni.. aiyaa..~ try jer attend. lulus x lulus belakang kira. ;p

kesimpulannye, bln nanti ler baru nk leyh cari keje pe sume. x sabo da ni nk pegang duet sendiri.. tapi keje apa yer...............?

Netrider oh Netrider..

salam sume. :)

pejam celik pejam celik, da 3 hari da kat psa ni.. psa a.k.a politeknik shah alam.hehe

taw ape saya buat kat sini..?

saja jer penuhi permintaan lecturer.. hoho..

bootcamp semnggu utk competiton netrider..

hoo.. denga nama pon cem gerun kan..?

ntah ler. . boleyh buat ke x ntah..

dalam kelas semua ok. bila nk study sendiri, keje nk lentok jer.. haih.. ~

ari sabtu ni, ntah cemana..

top 10 tu susah nk dapat.

semua terrer2..

ni baru poli nye team..

x tgok team University lagi..

maw pengsan haa. :)

pe pon.. doakan yg terbaik.. InsyaAllah, ada rezeki, ada la top 10 nye..

kalo x der, x per laa.. ~ redho.. :)

igt lagi mak kayuh basikal antaq. sian mak.. :(

em.. da abeh tadika, dapat result yg cemerlang.

cemerlang ke.? haha.. x igt.;p

masuk darjah satu kat SK Sungai Layar. dekat jer kat umah. kalo caye nangis kat cekolah pon, mesti mak yang dekat umah leyh dengaq. heee.

time sekolah, caye budak malas jugak. paling besh subjek math. hehe

cikgu latipah. garang woo.. dan igt lagi cikgu penah kasi gelaran bintang kat caye sbb caye dapat markah tggi math. antara yang tinggi la. yg laen ramai lagi dapat markah tggi.

best oo cekolah rendah. jadi pengawas kesihatan. hee. sbb sehat sgt kot..;p

jadi pengawas pusat sumber. hoho.. baca buku malas..;p

pastu da abeh UPSR semua. alhamdulillah dpaat elok gak.

x taw la pemeriksa kecian ke apa.

dia kaci 4A 1 B dan semestinya B itu adalah .. Bahasa Inggeris. yey!

subjek plg x cuke.;p

dapat tawaran g Sekolah Men keb Agama Yan.

Cekolah idaman.;)

kat sini best. form 1 sampai form 5. ada saja yg manis.

my best friend, husnna. since form 1 sampai form 5 kelas yang sma.. hee

kelas hidayah. kelas no 3. haha. x berganjak sebb x dak peningkatan.. has2..

plg sedeyh, spm terok. ish2.. mak pon sedeyh. maaf mak.:(

emm.. then da abes spm. tggu tawaran mana pon x dapat.

cedih oo.. matrik da confirm x dapat. sbb fizik kimia hebat sgt. depa takot nk bg peluang..hee

emm.. so, wat keputusan pi la wat stpm kat agama kedah.

2 mggu kat sana, x suka sgt environment. peraturan x ketat. sampai pelajar dya x ikot lansung. kami pelajar baru ni, smapia x taw nk ikot mana satu.

pakaian, waktu pa suma lah. pening2.

tapi subjek2 dya menarik. saya minat..;p

ada arab, pengajian am. ekonomi.

boleyh la.. minat la jugak. hee

2 mggu kat sana, tetiba dapat tawaran mai poli. err.

kos network. apatuh.? time tu x taw pa lansung.. x maw.

sbb da tekad nk belajaq sungguh2 kat agama kedah..

tapi apakan daya. abang mak suma nk caye g poli.

x pe la. ikot yang berpengalaman..;)

so, 2008. saya start belajar di poli ipoh. hoo. nk kata best tu, biasa ja.

1st semester, nanges kat lect sbb x boleyh nk catch up menda apa lect cakap. hee..

then seterusnya ok la. semua ok. sampai skrg. 6th semester. tggu time nk grad.

tu pon kalo berjaya siapkan projek akhir ni. pening2..

hee.. masa depan..? x taw la..

nk sambung degree ke. nk keje ke..

adoih..

itu sahaja dari caye.. :)

yang boring..hee
