Enterprise switching & routing
A resilient LAN and WAN built on sound design, so one failed link or device does not stop the business.
The problem
The network grew one switch at a time, and a single fault can take out more than it should.
Routing was set up years ago, and people are nervous about touching it.
What’s included
- Campus and core switching design
- VLAN design and segmentation
- BGP and OSPF design and configuration
- Redundancy and failover design
- Quality of service for voice and critical applications
- Failover testing and change support
Deliverables
- Logical and physical network diagrams
- IP and VLAN plan
- Routing design document
- Failover test results
How it works
Assess & understand
We review the topology, routing tables, traffic levels and past incidents.
Design & plan
We design the target LAN and WAN, then plan changes in safe stages.
Implement & configure
We configure and stage equipment, then make changes in agreed windows.
Test & handover
We test failover paths and leave your team with accurate diagrams.
Frequently asked questions
Can you fix a routing problem without a full redesign?
Yes. We can start with a focused review of the problem and recommend a redesign only if it is needed.
Do you work with carrier WAN links?
Yes. We design routing and failover over your existing links and work with your carrier on hand-offs.
How do you test redundancy?
We agree a test plan, then fail links and devices in a controlled window while watching the traffic.
