SISCO As the largest and most prestigious brand providing Routing equipment, Switching Network offers products with the highest level of efficiency and security to the global market.
Of course, just buying network equipment with famous brands like Cisco, even if they use the latest technologies, cannot guarantee the establishment of a dynamic and stable network. In order to maintain our network in the best service and security condition, we need to implement a prudent configuration on the network equipment. The most suitable solution for establishing a network with high productivity is expert design and proper configuration on the equipment. With the correct configuration of the equipment, you can be sure that the network is in the best state of performance and the use of network resources is done optimally.
Among the designs and configurations that the experts of this company perform on network equipment, the following points can be mentioned:
. VLAN and network subnetting:
One of the first and most important actions to be performed on local networks is dividing large networks into smaller parts based on their functional areas. Also, by having different VLANs, if a system is attacked or infected by malicious codes, the area of destruction will be limited to the same VLAN and will not affect other departments and users.
. Apply access control lists (Access List)
After performing VLAN and Subnetting in the network, the network manager can easily and by applying ACL, determine the access rights of the users of each department to other resources on the network.
. Hardening of equipment
The first action of hackers to infiltrate the network is to try to take control of the network equipment. Therefore, as the first security measure, the network equipment should be strengthened.
. Limit Physical Access to Switch Ports
Network switches can be configured so that only systems that comply with network security policies are allowed to connect to the switch ports! Otherwise, the switch port will enter the inactive state at the same moment.
. Securing protocols used in switching and routing
Routing and switching protocols do not use security features by default, so the attacker may be able to identify the intrusion path by listening to the messages related to these protocols.
. Redundancy
Having multiple equipment will not guarantee the stability of the network, unless those equipment are carefully designed and properly configured for redundancy. You can increase the stability of your network by exploiting redundancy protocols and creating redundancy in the network so that your organization's business is always active in the best condition.
