  1. Top-Down Network DesignChapter Eleven Selecting Technologies and Devices for Enterprise Networks Oppenheimer

  2. Enterprise Technologies and Devices • Remote access networks • Wide area networks (WANs) • Devices • End user remote access devices • Central site remote access devices • VPN concentrators • Routers AAB-2013

  3. Selection Criteria • Business requirements and constraints • Cost • Technical goals • Bandwidth requirements • QoS requirements • Network topology • Traffic flow and load • Etc. AAB-2013

  4. Remote Access Technologies • The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) • Cable modems • Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) AAB-2013

  5. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) • Used with synchronous, asynchronous, dial-up, and ISDN links • Defines encapsulation scheme for transport of different network-layer protocols • Supports authentication: • Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) • Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) • CHAP more secure than PAP AAB-2013

  6. PPP Layers Network Control Protocol (NCP) Link Control Protocol (LCP) Encapsulation based on High-Level Data-Link Control Protocol (HDLC) Physical Layer AAB-2013

  9. Cable Modem Service • Operates over the coax cable used by cable TV • Much faster than analog modems • No dialup required • Cable-network service providers offer hybrid fiber/coax (HFC) systems that connect CATV networks to the service provider’s high speed fiber-optic network. • This allow users to connect their PCs/small LAN to the coax cable and use this connection to access to the internet. • A typical cable network system offers 25 to 50 Mbps downstream and upstream bandwidth. AAB-2013

  10. Continue.. • If you plan to use this technology : • Ask the service provider the number of users who share a single cable and the types of applications they use. • Ask also about Qos for video, audio and other delay sensitive applications. • Provide info about your needs – bandwidth , applications you are using - find tune on the given solution. AAB-2013

  11. DSL-digital subscriber line • High-speed digital data traffic over ordinary telephone wires • Sophisticated modulation schemes mean higher speeds than ISDN • Speeds range from 1.544 to 9 Mbps • Actual bandwidth depends on type of DSL service, DSL modem, and many physical-layer factors • Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) very popular • Downstream faster than upstream AAB-2013

  12. WAN Technologies- connecting geographically dispersed sites • Leased lines • Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) • Frame Relay • Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) AAB-2013

  13. Leased Lines • Offered by many telephone companies. • Dedicated digital, copper circuits that a customer leases from a carrier for a predetermined amount of time, usually for months or years • Speeds range from 64 Kbps to 45 Mbps • Enterprises use leased lines for both voice and data traffic • Dedicated to a single customer-no sharing • Good choice if the topology is truly point-to-point. AAB-2013

  14. The North American Digital Hierarchy • the amount of capacity that WAN must provide. • selecting the right amount of capacity is called provisioning. • it requires an analysis of traffic flow – chapter 4 and analysis of scalability goals –chapter 2. • WAN bandwidth for copper cabling is using NADH-a channel in the hierarchy is called a digital signal (DS). • DS are multiplexed together to get high-sped WAN circuits. AAB-2013

  15. Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) • Physical-layer specification for high-speed synchronous transmission of packets or cells over fiber-optic cabling • Service providers and carriers make wide use of SONET in their internal networks • Gaining popularity within private networks • Support multiplexing and de multiplexing of individual signals. • A SONET network is usually connected in a ring topology using two self-healing fiber paths. • A path provides full-duplex communication and consists of a pair of fiber strands. AAB-2013

  16. Continue.. • One path acts as the full-time working transmission facility. • The other path acts as a backup protection pair-remain idle while the working path routes data. AAB-2013

  17. SONET Optical Carrier (OC) Levelsaka Synchronous Transport Signal (STS) Levels AAB-2013

  18. Typical SONET Topology SONET Multiplexer Backup Pair Working Pair AAB-2013

  19. Frame Relay • High-performance WAN protocol that operates at the physical and data link layer of the OSI ref model. • Industry-standard data-link-layer protocol for transporting traffic across wide-area virtual circuits • Optimized for efficiency on circuits with low error rates • Attractively-priced in most parts of the world • Carriers agree to forward traffic at a Committed Information Rate (CIR) AAB-2013

  20. Frame Relay (continued) To Router B: DLCI 100 To Router A: DLCI 200 Router A Router B Virtual Circuit (VC) AAB-2013

  21. Frame Relay Hub-and-Spoke Uses Subinterfaces hostname centralsite interface serial 0 encapsulation frame-relay interface serial 0.1 ip address 10.0.1.1 255.255.255.0 frame-relay interface-dlci 100 interface serial 0.2 ip address 10.0.2.1 255.255.255.0 frame-relay interface-dlci 200 Central-Site Router DLCI 100 DLCI 200 AAB-2013

  22. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) • Used in service provider internal networks • Gaining popularity within private networks, both WANs and sometimes LANs • Supports very high bandwidth requirements • Copper cabling: 45 Mbps or more • Fiber-optic cabling: OC-192 (9.952 Gbps) and beyond, especially if technologies such as wave-division multiplexing (WDM) are used AAB-2013

  23. ATM (continued) • Provides efficient sharing of bandwidth among applications with various Quality of Service (QoS) requirements • Cell-based system inherently better for QoS than frames • Application can specify upon connection establishment the QoS it requires • Peak and minimum cell rates, cell-loss ratio, and cell-transfer delay AAB-2013

  24. Ethernet over ATM • ATM router interfaces are expensive • Some providers allow a customer to use an Ethernet interface to access the provider’s ATM WAN • May require a converter • Expected to gain popularity because it has the advantages of both worlds • Easy-to-use LAN • QoS-aware WAN AAB-2013

  25. Selection Criteria for Remote Access Devices • Support for VPN features • Support for NAT • Reliability • Cost • Ease of configuration and management • Support for one or more high-speed Ethernet interfaces • If desired, wireless support • Etc. AAB-2013

  26. Selection Criteria for VPN Concentrators • Support for: • Tunneling protocols such as IPSec, PPTP, and L2TP • Encryption algorithms such as 168-bit Triple DES, Microsoft Encryption (MPPE), RC4, AES • Authentication algorithms, including MD5, SHA-1, HMAC • Network system protocols, such as DNS, RADIUS, Kerberos, LDAP • Routing protocols • Certificate authorities • Network management using SSH or HTTP with SSL • Etc. AAB-2013

  27. Selection Criteria for Enterprise Routers • Number of ports • Processing speed • Media and technologies supported • MTTR and MTBF • Throughput • Optimization features • Etc AAB-2013

  28. Selection Criteria for a WAN Service Provider • Extent of services and technologies • Geographical areas covered • Reliability and performance characteristics of the provider’s internal network • The level of security offered by the provider • The level of technical support offered by the provider • The likelihood that the provider will continue to stay in business AAB-2013

  29. Selecting a Provider (continued) • The provider’s willingness to work with you to meet your needs • The physical routing of network links • Redundancy within the network • The extent to which the provider relies on other providers for redundancy • The level of oversubscription on the network • QoS support • Etc. AAB-2013

  30. Summary • A major task during the physical design phase is selecting technologies and devices for enterprise networks • Remote access networks • WANs • Service providers • Devices • End user remote access devices • Central site remote access devices • VPN concentrators • Routers AAB-2013

  31. Review Questions • Compare and contrast technologies for supporting remote users. • Compare and contrast WAN technologies. • What selection criteria can you use when purchasing internetworking devices for enterprise network customers? • What criteria can you use when selecting a WAN service provider?
