Core Network Configuration

A local area network is a computer network that interconnects computers within a limited, area such as a workplace. RoseTech helps you integrate best practices to keep your network running efficiently.

Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN)
Divide and isolate network traffic to improve stability, security and performance with a Virtual Local Area Network. This subdivision allows for more efficient commercial network operation, free of congestion.

Link Aggregation Group (LAG)
Link aggregation allows networking equipment to treat multiple physical links as single, high bandwidth, links. These are commonly called trunks, and provide benefits to your infrastructure.

  • Increased reliability and availability. If one physical links in the group goes down, traffic is dynamically and transparently reassigned to one of the other physical links.
  • Better use of physical resources. Traffic can be load-balanced across the physical links.
  • Increased bandwidth. Aggregated physical links deliver higher bandwidth than each individual link.
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
Local area networks are often interconnected, using redundant links to improve resilience should one connection fail. If configured improperly, this creates connection loops, resulting in instability. We can implement Spanning Tree Protocol, a technology that prevents these loops, and allows you to configure redundant cabling.

A wide-area network (WAN) is any telecommunications network or computer network that extends over a large geographical distance/place. Wide-area networks are often established with your internet service provider (ISP).

WAN optimization is the process of implementing best practices to increase the performance of a network. Functions such as compression and latency optimization allow your network to run smoother, faster and handle higher data transfer thresholds. We’ll handle all the talking with your ISP, sit back and relax.

Effective bandwidth management is crucial to the performance of any business network. In most networks, many users share a pooled resources.

This means that one user could potentially consume most of the available internet bandwidth and slow the connections of other users. High-bandwidth users can create a larger problem if your network has critical voice traffic that depends on having enough bandwidth to function properly.

The solution, implement a traffic shaping system. Traffic shaping can prioritize your important or time critical network traffic to guarantee performance and at the same time throttle less important traffic. Our firewalls have this capability, and configuration is simple.

Wireless Local Area Network, commonly called WiFi, refers to a Local Area Network that does not need cables to connect devices. Instead, radio waves and are used to communicate.

Your business is likely already using this technology; however, we can help you get the most out of it. RoseTech deploys and manages an industry leader in wireless networking.

  • With multiple wireless access points, extend stable wireless networks that work together to provide secure WiFi in your facilities.
  • More users can connect to enterprise access points, compared with consumer-grade routers.
  • Our data center monitors the performance of these devices 24/7, and provides alerts or auto-remediation, depending on the issue.
  • Enable secure guest wireless networks for your customers.

WAN Failover
When your primary connection to the internet fails, what is your plan? With so many systems relying on the internet, your business must stay connected. We’ll help you set up a secondary connection to the internet to reduce the likelihood of a complete outage.

WAN Load Balancing
The aim of load balancing is to optimize the use of resources available, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload of any single resource. Instead of using a single connection to the internet, load balancing takes advantage of multiple connections, and splits the workload between them. 

Are you ready for the future? With the next generation of internet protocol, your network can benefit significantly.

More Efficient Routing
IPv6 reduces the size of routing tables and makes routing more efficient and hierarchical. Because IPv6 network fragmentation is handled at the host, packets can be passed more rapidly. 

More Efficient Packet Processing
IPv6’s simplified packet header makes packet processing more efficient. Compared with IPv4, IPv6 contains no IP-level checksum, reducing the number of calculations required to pass information.

Directed Data Flows
IPv6 supports multicast rather than broadcast. Multicast allows bandwidth-intensive packet flows (like multimedia streams) to be sent to multiple destinations simultaneously, saving network bandwidth.

Simplified Network Configuration
Traditionally, a router must assign network devices an IPv4 address before they can join the network. With IPv6, a device can append its own identifier to information sent from the router.

Support For New Services
By eliminating Network Address Translation (NAT), true end-to-end connectivity at the IP layer is restored, enabling new and valuable services. Services such as VoIP and Quality of Service (QoS) become more robust and are easier to maintain.

Security
IPSec, which provides authentication, confidentiality, and data integrity, is built into IPv6. Because of their potential to carry malware, IPv4 ICMP packets are usually blocked by corporate firewalls, but IPv6 ICMP packets may be permitted due to their increased security.

 

Physical Design

Your data center, cable closet, server room, etc. is the heart of your business. Without efficient data management, storage and dissemination, most business can’t function. RoseTech can help you achieve many best practices, some of which are listed below.

Proper Environment
Your server room must be open, well-ventilated, and as dust-free as possible.  Servers and other computer equipment generate heat, and inadequate ventilation or accumulation of dust can cause overheating and failure.  Also, space must exist between units for regular dusting and maintenance access.

Environmental monitors are common, along with physical cooling mechanisms such as a dedicated air conditioner, raised floors, self cooling cabinetry, and much more.

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
Your server room’s electrical system must have enough redundancy to continue functioning through interruptions of power.  Additionally, power to your units must be correctly distributed and shielded against surges.  An array of backup generators and batteries will help keep your power supply intact, and power distribution units can ensure the health of your equipment.

Organization
Another key part of your server room design is efficient routing of wires and cables. A disorganized clutter of wire is an accident waiting to happen.  Proper pathways where wires and connections can travel without risk of tripping, pulling or tugging can prevent an injury and system downtime. It is equally important to map your connections, allowing IT personnel to quickly identify cabling.

Network topology is the arrangement of the elements of a communication network. Without proper documentation, it can be difficult to operate. We take this very seriously, and help you design and document your network.

Your IT department cannot manage what they don’t know. Not only does documentation make it easier to identify problems, it makes your environment more resistant to employee turnover. With proper documentation, you can also better gauge obsolescence, service contracts, and improve access technical contacts.

 

Ethernet Cabling
Ethernet is the most common family of cabling used in modern networking. RoseTech can cost effectively install, test, and document a new cabling infrastructure. Additionally, expansion and documentation of an existing cable plan is possible.

 

Optical Fiber Cabling
To keep up with increasing data demands, optical fiber cables have become the standard for high performance networking. Although fiber isn’t as practical for wiring throughout the facility, it is cost effective for use in the server room.
