Hello all. I would like to send a thank you before hand for the response?s and
suggestions I am to recv from this email.
After month's of searching, I have been hired into a job position as the
Network Administrator. The company currently has a very bad setup of there
Network infrastructure and has hired me to come in, asses the damage, and
design a network, no matter the budget, that would help to keep and grow them
for the future.
I have very little experience (on the job training) with designing a network.
I am a new graduate of Technical college, where I graduated with all A's, and
did very well on my Capstone with designing/building a Network infrastructure.
I have 5 to 6 years in the IT field, N+, A+, Solaris 10, Linux+, and the AS
degree in Computer Network Systems;CCNA-pending. My experience comes from
designing/building PC/Laptops, remote desktop support, and my most pervious
position was System Database admin on Solairs/Unix
platform;Telnet,SSH,VNC,VPN, VT100 Terminal..etc to remote clients.
What I ask from you expert's is this.
Help!! I would like to be pointed in a direction that may help to guide me in
creating a "beginners" style network.
Are there any basic/template designs available?
There are a list of things I know we need.
1. A new Web Server.
2. File server
3. FTP server
4. Application server
5. Cisco routers.
6. A wall mount rack.
