Introduction

The scope of this proposal is to create a better network for the Medical Practice that will allow Hospital flexibility in the following categories:

Security Data Backup Network Scalability

SYSTEM ANALYSIS

Existing System:

ABC Hospital Practices Current Network Design:

The current network is nothing of a business network. None of the locations are connected; each of the locations is running its own Local Area Network(LAN).

4 | P a g e

There is no Virtual Private Network(VPN) for the company to provide separation from the public network.

Some of the Hardware used in this network needs to be upgraded and additional systems added to ensure productivity among departments.

5 | P a g e

Proposed System:

6 | P a g e

Proposed System contains:

Centralized connection between Computers i.e Workstation in all branches and a Physical Server, a Web Server and a Application Server.

All workstations will be running Virus Scan, Microsoft Office and Microsoft Live for email solutions.

7 | P a g e

Disaster Recovery: Disaster recovery (DR) involves a set of policies and procedures to enable the recovery or continuation of vital technology infrastructure and systems following a natural or human-induced disaster.

OPERATING OVERVIEW

Hardware:

Inventory of Hardware Network Devices

Network Devices Need:10 | P a g e

10 Switches 5 Routers 5 DSU/CSU (Optional, routers

can possess this particular feature to cut cost.)

Server Equipment: 5 Print Servers 1 Web Server 1 Application Server 1 Server (Linux OS)

Server Equipment Continue: 1 Directory Server for the

Windows Server 2003/2008 1 Database

ServerWorkstations 48 Workstations 11 Printers

Software:

11 | P a g e

All workstation will be configured in the same manner. An image disk will be created to allow greater flexibility when troubleshooting.

All workstations will be running Virus Scan, Microsoft Office and Microsoft Live for email solutions.

Applications such as Medical Management, Windows Server 2003, SQL and Fedora 8 will be hosted at the City Center location via VPN.

Disaster Recovery:

13 | P a g e

Being able to recover fast is key to the continuation of a business.

Fixing or Replacing hardware

Backups

Software errors

Knowing the legal ramifications

Benefits:

Planning before it happens saves time and prevents the

14 | P a g e

company from losing generated income. The scope of the Disaster Recovery Plan is to give the IT Admin a general idea of what to do in the event of an emergency

Cost Analysis:

After examining the Disaster Recovery Plan, lets take a look

15 | P a g e

at the cost of a disaster from an extreme point of view. The most valued components of the Medical Practice is its servers to do business with the insurance companies.Example: 3 Servers are down and none operational. Each server costs 6000 and it will take 4 hours each to get new servers online and operational.In a single day, these servers generates 20,000.00.

Now, I have created a percentage in which is more important to the company or should be of importance.

16 | P a g e

Application Server 20% of the businessWeb Server 10% of the businessDatabase Server 30% of the businessKnown as Annual Rate of Occurrence = .6%Company Generated Income = 20,000.00 a dayCost of replacing servers 3 x 6000 = 18,000Known as Single Loss Expectancy = (20,000 + 18,000) = 38,000Now we need to Multiply both ARO and SLE

.6(38,000) = 22,800The Medical Practice needs to budget at least 22,800In order to deal with failed servers.

17 | P a g e

Planning Installation of New Network:

18 | P a g e

Testing New Network:

19 | P a g e

Through using a Network Testing Script, many areas of the network can be tested at once. This will ensure that there are no problems once the network is in place for business.

20 | P a g e

Conclusion:21 | P a g e

The Proposed Offers scalability Hardware,Network,Wirelesslyone central location for backupsMultiple Networks (VPN, WAN, and LAN), Security and Allows the IT Admin to work remotely.
