The Problem:
New company moving into a brand new office space. Currently, new company does not have a server for common file sharing and for storing email. Employees need to access files and email from home and on the road. Computers need protection from the internet and viruses.
The Analysis:
New space does not have existing Internet or LAN connections. Needs wireless network for 2000 sq ft with secure authentication, single username and password to simplify user access to secure resources throughout the network. A firewall is needed for protection from intruders on the internet. VPN is needed to provide secure access to network resources. Employees need access to a common printer to share and print to.
The Solution:
- Installed pedestal server for internal email and shared file access, switch for networking all computers, two network connections in each office for future growth and ease of access to internal network, recommended a list of local ISPs and service levels based on needs, installed two wireless access points for coverage that utilize radius authentication, firewall and configured based on necessary internal / external services and traffic flow, configured firewall as a VPN end point for remote access utilizing radius authentication, installed network based color LaserJet printer to allow access by all internal and external users, and configured antivirus application to be centrally managed.
**Radius authentication offers the use of a single username / password to access network wide resources.
The Benefit:
Now employees can check their email and work remotely while accessing network resources such as files and printers, share calendars and contacts, they can also work with confidence knowing that they are protected from internet prowlers, hackers, viruses and malware. Faxing made easy now because employees can receive and send faxes from their computers. With the use of Active Directory and Radius authentication, user now have only one username and password to access all resources like wireless network, VPN access and email.

The Problem:
Salesmen do not have a means of demonstrating their product. Servers are very slow and out of hard drive space. Servers are stuffed in a small cluttered closet.
The Analysis:
All of the servers are actually old PCs that are running server software, including email and file sharing. Servers are on a bakers rack in a small closet using UPS systems designed for small PC’s. This closet is on the second floor of the office which warms up considerably in the summer. Does not have an additional server with the necessary minimum specs to install Demo of product and they not have the necessary equipment to put the Demo server on the internet.
The Solution:
- We designed, proposed and won the bid to upgrade existing network. The design included 7 new 2U rack servers specifically built by DragNet IT based on the specs needed by each server. All servers came with dual or quad core Intel processors, RAID 1, 5 or 10, hot swap SATA drives, 8g of memory. All servers will be enclosed in the new rack system along with the new UPS systems, server management console and firewall. Moved all data from old servers, installed new Exchange 2007 server and migrated from old email system. Installed additional networking equipment and placed the new Demo servers in a new created DMZ for restricted public internet access. Assisted HVAC company in choosing best cooling system for server closet based on BTU output.
The Benefit:
The new servers provide an incredible boost in performance over the old ones. The new email system provides a wide variety of access and integration into today’s new mobile devices and technologies. Now that the new Oracle Demo servers are in the DMZ and accessible from the internet, salesmen close more deals in less time. Salesmen, in some cases, don’t even have to travel because the client can actually log into a specifically designed environment right from their office while on a conference call. The new equipment stays cool because of the new cooling system installed in the newly expanded server closet. Server closet is clean, neat and organized and all servers are centrally managed from the rack server console.

The Problem:
Existing customer needs to move to a larger space with minimal downtime to servers, email and remote access. The Analysis:
Prior tenant in new space took all networking equipment except for the wiring hanging from the ceiling. New space has more than triple the network connections than the existing office. Client wants to move on a weekend. The Solution:
-
Installed rack and wire management system in new space. Traced, numbered and connected each LAN connection to the network by way of the new gigabit switches to handle the additional volume. Arranged for ISP to install and test their equipment in new space the Thursday prior to the move. Rack mounted existing servers in new rack along with all the other existing network equipment.
The Benefit:
By taking a proactive approach getting the new network up and running prior to the move, the client experienced minimal down time to email and remote access. Now the servers and other equipment are in a clean and clutter free room with wire management raceways. Internal and external networks were up and running 1 hour after the move. -
The Problem:
Employees need equal access to enter new information into and view existing records from the manufacturing product quality database. Company needs a way to create and track serial numbers for each product manufactured. The Analysis:
All employees have to write down important quality assurance data to be entered into the database and pass it on to the warehouse supervisor, where the warehouse supervisor has to manually enter this data through a MS Access application. This process leaves a lot of room for error and the Q/A data typically takes 3 - 4 days to be entered, due to his overwhelming workload. Sales department cannot access the database directly and has to wait 2 -3 days for data requests to be returned. The Solution:
-
Developed a data entry application consisting of a front end that can be used in any web browser. The back end is a MySQL database running on a dedicated PHP web server protected front the internet via a firewall.
The Benefit:
All employees have the ability to access the server via a username and password challenge. Employees can now enter quality assurance data directly into the QA database instantly , this provides the ability for access to real-time data by any employee from the Sales department. The warehouse manager can now focus his efforts on other responsibilities making him more efficient. Remote employees can access the same data via a VPN connection. But, the best part is that the company did not have to spend dime on user licenses, saving the company an enormous amount of money compared to the other applications.
