Enterprise Design Probelm / Study [7:61351]
Have I got a good one! Just got through reading an RFP for a large organization. Over 30 sites, 12,000 ports, and 2000 phones. Complete rebuild of the network LAN and WAN infrastructure. Add to that throwing out all their old PBX and key systems and building for VoIP and video, in addition to current data traffic. New switches, new routers, client asking for generous redundancy. L3 switching up the wazoo ( that's a technical term meaning lotsa money to spend ) The thrill of the design is something else. Customer wants a centralized Call Manager, but also wants certainty in case of failure at any of the usual places. This oughta keep me out of trouble for a few weeks.

Consider yourself lucky, that's a great thing you get to work on a project of that scale, especially if you get to be one of the major players in putting the puzzle together. I wish I could be part of it as well. Good luck !

Sounds terrific! It would make an excellent running case study for a network design book. :-) Seriously, if something like that would be feasible (politically, etc.) and you would be interested in participating in something of this nature, contact me offline. Thanks and good luck with the project! Priscilla The Long and Winding Road wrote: > > Have I got a good one! > > Just got through reading an RFP for a large organization.
