- 0:04network design methodology
- 0:06this is the second segment of applying
- 0:09methodology to a design
- 0:13the network design methodology presented
- 0:15in this section is derived from the
- 0:17ciscos repair plan design
- 0:21implement operate and optimize
- 0:24or the ppdio methodology which reflects
- 0:28a network's
- 0:29life cycle so the following sections
- 0:32describe the ppgio phases and their
- 0:35relation to the network design
- 0:36methodology
- 0:38and the benefits of a life cycle
- 0:40approach to network design
- 0:43subsequent section explains the design
- 0:46methodology in detail
- 0:51the ppdio network life cycle approach
- 0:55so design as an integral part of the
- 0:57ppdio methodology
- 1:01the ppdio network lifecycle as
- 1:03illustrated here
- 1:06reflects the basis of a standard
- 1:08network's lifecycle
- 1:10so as shown the ppd io lifecycle paces
- 1:14are separate
- 1:15yet closely related let's start with the
- 1:18first phase
- 1:20prepare page the prepare pace
- 1:23involves establishing the organizational
- 1:26business requirements
- 1:28developing a network strategy
- 1:32and proposing a high-level conceptual
- 1:34architecture
- 1:35identifying technologies that can help
- 1:38support
- 1:39the architecture financial justification
- 1:42of the network strategy is established
- 1:46by assessing the business case for the
- 1:48proposed architecture
- 1:51the next one would be plant base
- 1:54this space involves identifying the
- 1:57network requirements
- 1:59which are based on the goals of the
- 2:01network
- 2:02where the network will be installed who
- 2:04will require
- 2:05which network services and so forth
- 2:09so the plan base also involves assessing
- 2:12the sites
- 2:13where the network will be installed and
- 2:15any existing networks
- 2:17and performing a gap analysis to
- 2:19determine if the existing network
- 2:21infrastructure
- 2:23sites and operational environment can
- 2:25support
- 2:26the proposed system so a project
- 2:29plan helps manage the tasks
- 2:32responsibilities
- 2:34critical milestones and resources
- 2:37required
- 2:38to implement the changes in the network
- 2:40so the project plan
- 2:42should align with the scope cost
- 2:46and resource parameters established
- 2:49in the original business requirements so
- 2:52the output of this space is a set of
- 2:55network requirements okay
- 2:58so the third piece would be design pace
- 3:02okay or designing the solutions the
- 3:06initial requirements determined in the
- 3:08plan
- 3:08phase drive the network design
- 3:10specialists activities
- 3:12these specialists design the network
- 3:15according to these initial requirements
- 3:18incorporating any additional data
- 3:20gathered
- 3:22during the network analysis and network
- 3:24audit
- 3:25so when upgrading an existing network
- 3:27and
- 3:28through discussion with managers and
- 3:30network users
- 3:33so the network design specification that
- 3:35is produced
- 3:36is a comprehensive detailed design that
- 3:39meets current
- 3:40business and technical requirements and
- 3:43incorporates specifications to support
- 3:46availability reliability security
- 3:50scalability and performance so this
- 3:54design specification provides the basis
- 3:56for implementation
- 3:58activities so next would be
- 4:02the implement phase so implement the
- 4:04solution
- 4:06integrate without disruption or causing
- 4:09vulnerability okay now in the
- 4:13implement pace implementation and
- 4:16verification begins
- 4:17after the design has been approved so
- 4:20the network
- 4:21and any additional components are built
- 4:24according to the design specifications
- 4:26with the goal of integrating devices
- 4:29without disrupting
- 4:31the existing network or creating points
- 4:33of vulnerability
- 4:36so the next one would be the operate
- 4:38pace
- 4:40okay so maintain network health
- 4:43manage resolve prepare
- 4:46and replace now the operation is the
- 4:50final test
- 4:51to the science appropriateness
- 4:55so the operate phase involves
- 4:58maintaining network health through
- 5:00day-to-day operations
- 5:02which might include
- 5:06reducing expenses so the fault detection
- 5:09and correction
- 5:10and performance monitoring that occur in
- 5:13daily operations
- 5:14provide initial data for the initial
- 5:18uh considerations on the network
- 5:21lifecycle
- 5:22optimized race the last one would be
- 5:26the optimized space so operational
- 5:29excellence
- 5:30adapt to changing business requirements
- 5:34so the optimized space is based on
- 5:36proactive
- 5:38network management the goal of which is
- 5:40to identify
- 5:41and resolve issues before real problem
- 5:44arises
- 5:46and organization is affected so reactive
- 5:50fault detection and correction
- 5:52troubleshooting
- 5:53are necessary when proactive management
- 5:56cannot predict
- 5:57and mitigate the failures so in the
- 5:59ppdio
- 6:01process the optimized space might lead
- 6:04to network redesign
- 6:05if too many network problems or errors
- 6:08arises
- 6:09so if performance does not meet
- 6:12expectations
- 6:13or if new applications are identified
- 6:17to support organizational and technical
- 6:20requirements
- 6:23so although design is one of the six
- 6:26ppdio
- 6:27bases all the other pages influence
- 6:31design decisions
- 6:32and the design phase interacts closely
- 6:36with them as follows
- 6:37okay the requirements derived
- 6:41from the prepare and plan phases
- 6:44are the basis of the network design
- 6:46right
- 6:47now the implement includes the initial
- 6:51verification of the design
- 6:53on the actual network now during the
- 6:56operation and optimize the final
- 6:59decision is made about the
- 7:00appropriateness of the design
- 7:03based on the network analysis and any
- 7:06problems that
- 7:07arise so the network might have to be
- 7:10redesigned
- 7:11to correct any discovered errors
- 7:17now what are the benefits of the
- 7:19lifecycle approach to network design
- 7:22okay now the network lifecycle approach
- 7:25provides many benefits including the
- 7:28following
- 7:29so lowering the total cost of ownership
- 7:33identifying and validating technology
- 7:36requirements
- 7:38planning for infrastructure changes and
- 7:40resource requirements
- 7:42developing a sound network design
- 7:44aligned with technical requirements
- 7:47and business goals accelerating
- 7:50successful implementation improving the
- 7:53efficiency of the network
- 7:54and of the staff supporting it and
- 7:57reducing
- 7:58operating expenses okay
- 8:02so the next uh advantages
- 8:05okay or benefits would be the increasing
- 8:09network availability
- 8:11so assessing the state of the network
- 8:13security and its ability to support
- 8:16the proposed design so specifying the
- 8:18correct set of hardware and software
- 8:20releases
- 8:21and keeping them operational and current
- 8:24producing a sound operational design and
- 8:27validating network
- 8:29operations also
- 8:32staging and testing the proposed system
- 8:35before deployment
- 8:36is amassed all right improving
- 8:40staff skills okay so you have to train
- 8:43your staff
- 8:44proactively monitoring the system and
- 8:47assessing
- 8:49availability trends and alerts okay and
- 8:52proactively identifying security
- 8:55okay or security breaches and defining
- 8:58remediation plans
- 9:00all right next would be improving
- 9:03business agility okay
- 9:06so establishing business requirements
- 9:08and technology strategies
- 9:11readying sites to support the system
- 9:14to be implemented integrating technical
- 9:18requirements and business goals into a
- 9:20detailed design
- 9:22and demonstrating that the network is
- 9:24functioning as
- 9:25specified so expertly installing
- 9:29configuring and integrating system
- 9:30components
- 9:31and continually enhancing performance
- 9:36so the last benefit would be
- 9:38accelerating access to applications and
- 9:41services
- 9:42okay so this includes assessing and
- 9:45improving operational preparedness
- 9:48to support current and planned network
- 9:50technologies
- 9:52improving service delivery efficiency
- 9:55and
- 9:55effectiveness by increasing availability
- 9:58resource capacity and performance
- 10:02improving the availability reliability
- 10:04and stability of the network
- 10:07and the applications running and
- 10:10managing and resolving issues okay
- 10:17so ppd io network lifecycle approach
- 10:20design methodology so when working in an
- 10:24environment that requires creative
- 10:25production
- 10:26on a tight schedule for example when
- 10:29designing a network or internet work
- 10:31using a methodology can be helpful just
- 10:34like
- 10:35in preparing or doing
- 10:38software development so we also use
- 10:40methodology on that
- 10:42okay so same thing on the network design
- 10:44a methodology
- 10:46is a documented systematic
- 10:49way of doing something so following a
- 10:52design methodology can have
- 10:54many advantages so first
- 10:57it ensures that no step is missed
- 11:00when the process is followed
- 11:04it also provides a framework for the
- 11:07design process
- 11:08deliverables it encourages consistency
- 11:12in the creative process enabling network
- 11:15designers
- 11:16to set appropriate deadlines and
- 11:18maintain customer and manager
- 11:20satisfaction
- 11:22another thing would be it allows
- 11:24customers and
- 11:25managers to validate that the designers
- 11:28have thought
- 11:29about how to meet these requirements
- 11:33so the design methodology presented here
- 11:35includes three basic steps
- 11:38some of the design methodology steps are
- 11:40intrinsic
- 11:41to the ppg io design phase whereas
- 11:45other steps are related to ppgio paces
- 11:50so these are the three steps in the
- 11:53design methodology
- 11:55so first is identify customer
- 11:57requirements
- 11:59this is very important just like in
- 12:01software development
- 12:02so the first thing to do is to identify
- 12:05the functional requirements
- 12:06or the customer requirements so also in
- 12:10the network design
- 12:11it has to be considered so in this step
- 12:15which is typically completed during the
- 12:17ppgio prepare phase
- 12:20key decision makers identify the initial
- 12:22requirements
- 12:24so based on these requirements a high
- 12:26level conceptual architecture
- 12:28is proposed so you have also
- 12:31deliverables
- 12:32for each of these presets or steps here
- 12:36so the next one would be characterizing
- 12:38the existing network and sites
- 12:40so the plant phase involves
- 12:42characterizing sites
- 12:44and assessing any existing networks and
- 12:47performing
- 12:48a gap analysis to determine whether the
- 12:51existing system infrastructure
- 12:54sites and operational environment can
- 12:56support the proposed system
- 12:59so characterization of the existing
- 13:01network and sites
- 13:02includes site and network audit
- 13:05and network analysis so during the
- 13:08network audit
- 13:10the existing network is totally checked
- 13:12for integrity
- 13:13and quality during the network analysis
- 13:18network behavior like traffic congestion
- 13:21and software is analyzed
- 13:25okay last one would be design the
- 13:28topology and network solutions
- 13:30so in this step the detailed design of
- 13:33the network is created
- 13:35decisions are made about network
- 13:37infrastructure
- 13:38infrastructure services and applications
- 13:42the data for making this decision is
- 13:45gathered during the first two steps
- 13:48a pilot or prototype network might be
- 13:51constructed
- 13:52to verify the correctness of the plan
- 13:55and to identify and correct
- 13:57any problems as a proof of concept
- 13:59before
- 14:00implementing the entire network so a
- 14:03detailed design
- 14:04document is also written during this
- 14:07step
- 14:08it includes information that has been
- 14:11documented
- 14:12in the previous step
- 14:16when the design methodology is complete
- 14:21the design implementation process is
- 14:24executed
- 14:25this process includes the following
- 14:28steps here
- 14:29so first plan the implementation
- 14:32so during this step the implementation
- 14:35procedures are prepared in advance
- 14:37to expedite and clarify the actual
- 14:39implementation
- 14:41cost assessment is also undertaken at
- 14:43this time
- 14:44so if you still remember cost assessment
- 14:47is
- 14:48part also of the building black approach
- 14:51so whatever methodology you use
- 14:54so they have these similarities okay
- 14:57so this step is performed during the
- 15:00ppdio design phase
- 15:04step 2 implement and verify the design
- 15:08so the actual implementation and
- 15:09verification of the design
- 15:11take place during this step by building
- 15:15a network
- 15:16so this step maps directly
- 15:19to the implement phase of the ppdio
- 15:22methodology
- 15:23so take note that a pilot or prototype
- 15:26network verifies the design
- 15:28somewhat somewhere okay however
- 15:31the design is not truly verified until
- 15:34it is actually implemented
- 15:37and then step 3 monitor and
- 15:40optionally redesign so the network is
- 15:43put into operation after it is built
- 15:46so during operation the network is
- 15:49constantly monitored
- 15:51and checked for errors so if
- 15:53troubleshooting problems become
- 15:55too frequent or even impossible to
- 15:58manage
- 15:59a network redesign might be required
- 16:02so this can be avoided if all the
- 16:04previous steps
- 16:06have been completed properly so this
- 16:09step in fact
- 16:10a part of the operate and optimized
- 16:12spaces
- 16:13of the ppdio methodology
