Diseño de la red de frontera para el Centro de Formación Continua San Bartolo de la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana

Abstract

The “Centro de Formación Continua San Bartolo” (CFCSB); a south extension of “Universidad Politécnica Salesiana”, of Quito city, is dedicated to the preparation and technical capacitation of children and teenagers, to ensure their integration into society contributing to the working market. The current Project takes as a reference, the campus’ network of the institution, and the edge infrastructure has been designed to guarantee the communications and the outward connectivity. Based on the Cisco Internet Edge Guide, a convergent border infrastructure was obtained, which engages itself with security necessities and requirements, high availability, scalability, and a better-quality service for students, teachers, administrative staff and guest. The perimeter network’s design was made with the purpose of contributing to the mission’s center, optimizing the campus’ network alongside open source apps which allow to control the amount of voice traffic, data and videos that are generated on daily activities inside the institution. The efficient distribution of the bandwidth will improve the user’s experience and the mechanisms that ensure that the network is always going to be available. Cisco PPDIOO and Top-Down methodologies were applied, which provided a systematic process for the design of each one of the modules that form the border network for the center. Finally, the topology of the border network was modeled with specialized programs and was also verified, optimized and the results were documented for future implementation.
