Chapter 2: Computer networking design and solutions
To stay competitive in today’s business environment, the individual would have to use as many innovative ways as possible to ensure the business in reaching its desired target audience in an optimal way.
Therefore the heart of most businesses today lies in the computer network chosen to represent all the various aspects of the business.
Basically the network design and solutions formed is the key to the digital information and communication that links all connected parties on the same “page”.
When the appropriate computer network design and solutions are chosen then the productivity to be expected with such a choice would vastly improve and also help to reduce the threat of loss or possible theft of data.
However in order for the computer network to function well there are certain requirements that should be monitored such as the proper maintenance done periodically. Without this periodic inspection, the system becomes vulnerable to possible security risks, money wasters and unreliable functions.
The computer networking design and solutions chosen would ideally be able to provide some of the following element without any need for other additional support. These would include the back end system integration, front office implementation, network architecture design, an active directory design and migration, IT infrastructure/IT governance, local and wide area network, VPN, Microsoft exchange planning and implementation, Novell directory services design and secure network computing facilities.
All or some of the above would ideally help to create the ideal scenario for the smooth running of the business entity in the competitive platform, of today.
Most new startup businesses would have to seek out the services of others to provide some of the above elements as these would be deemed important to the eventual progress and success of the business entity..
Chapter 3: Getting the right computer network hardware.
There are several different elements that should be examined before deciding on the most suitable computer network hardware that would be needed to ensure the business entity is well run and complete. Understanding the various functions within the business workings will give the individual an idea of what types of computer network hardware would be needed to assist in the areas of need.
Understanding that simply walking into a store and buying the first system that is introduced would not in any way help the individual business owner eventually, and even worse it may be found that the initial choice made could be entirely unsuitable and therefore redundant. Understanding that all computer systems are not designed to be equal would be a good place to start. There are computer network hardwares that are available to suit various different types of businesses.
The following are some areas to consider when looking into the computer network hardware platform:
• Business computers – these machines would usually have to run for long hours and perhaps even infinitely. Therefore there would be a need to consider a computer networking hardware system that can accommodate such needs without causing any negative effects to the business as a whole.
• Business servers – ideally these should be able to make reliable, share and manage all of the business data as it is specially designed to hold, manage, send and process data. The technology behind these servers should be able to be more reliable that desktop systems, helps in the processing of data at a faster pace and with a heightened level of efficiency, is able to reduce the data bottle necks for the information flow and ensure it is not disturbed or overloaded. The computer network hardware is also designed to scale as according to the needs of the particular business.
Chapter 4: Setting up your computer network
Due to the advancement in technological breakthroughs, it is becoming more popular to set up one’s own computer network without having to enlist the expertise of others. However in doing so, the individual should be aware of all the elements that contribute to a complete computer network.
The following are some instructions that can be easily managed should the individual decide to set up a computer network:
• Perhaps the first step would be to determine the need for either a wired or wireless network. This will eventually be a very pivotal point for the business entity. Points that would help to determine this would include considerations such as budget and security. Wired networks would be more suitable for higher security needs.
• There would also be a need to acquire the necessary equipment based on the infrastructure of the business entity. If there is a need to have a wired network that would have to accommodate large number devices, then there may be a need to have the support of those who are able to handle such tasks. If a wireless network is chosen, then there would be a need to have wireless access points, and ideally this should include internet connectivity that is both reliable and consistent.
• Determining the IP address scheme to be used and the corresponding IP addresses to the serves on the network would be another task that would need attentions as this is an important element that facilitates the connectivity of the business. Among the more popular choices would be Vista, and Windows 7 which are based on operating system that determine the network discovery processes.
• There would also be a need to select the workgroup name and assign it to all the computers on the network. This can be done by following the steps recommended for this action.
