7. 7 Users One could assume there are the following Users; 1 x Owner 1 x Personal Secretary 6 x Accounts 5 x Secretaries 1 x Office Manager Based on this, there are a total of 14 staff within this business Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

10. 10 Departments Lets Assume for this Tasks the Departments are as follows 1.Audit 2.Public_Comp 3.Group_Tax 4.Super Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

13. 13 Folder Structure C:\DataAudit Public Group_Tax Super Users_Home Admin Accounts Payroll HR OHS Policies Lets assume that the current Folder Structure is adequate. Lets now look at 2 Users and see what possible Drive Mappings they will require. User 1: Owner The Owner could be allocated a total of 6 Drive Mappings User 2: Secretary The Secretary could be allocated a total of 7 Drive Mappings In both cases this is an excessive mount of Drive Mappings Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

14. 14 Folder Structure It would be very difficult for users to navigate through 6 to 7 Drive Mappings. Our task here is to restructure our Folder Structure so Users have no more than 4 Drive Mappings. Have a go and see what you can come up with. TIP By adding a Department and Staff folder could help.

15. 15 Folder Structure Have any luck. Here is what I think could achieve our goal. C:\ DataAdminAccounts Payroll StaffHR Policies OHS DepartmentsPublic_Tax Group_Tax Super Audit Users_Home Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

16. 16 Folder Structure New Folder Structure. Owner If we Share Admin, Departments, Audit and Users_Home and allow Inheritance that should achieve our goal. Secretary If we share Staff, Departments and Users_Home and allow Inheritance that should achieve our goal. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

17. 17 Recapping To this point we have designed the AD and Folder Structure. We could design our Groups and Drive Mappings to suit. At this stage we are still uncertain as to the configuration of our Network. How many Workstations and what Server configuration will we implement. For us to develop our Drive Mappings we will need to know the names of our server/s I would suggest at this stage we design at least our Server/s. If this is the case then why not design the Network completely. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

19. 19 Designing a Network Lets start at the beginning, we know there are 2 main types of Computer Networks. 1.Peer-to-Peer 2.Server There are also many configurations of these; Bus Star Mess Ring Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

20. 20 Designing a Network Lets look at the differences between these networks Peer-to-Peer Files are stored on each computer. Security can be limited. Duplication of resources such as printer, scanners can be difficult. Backups can be difficult to perform and schedule. Less costly to setup. Server Files are stored on the server/s. Security is by way of Unique Username and Password. Sharing of resources easier. Backups can be run and maintained from a central location. Expensive to setup and maintain. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

21. 21 Designing the Network What type of Network do we require As a network Administrator, Engineer or Consultant ask yourself 3 real questions regarding installing a peer-to- peer or server centric network. That is; 1.Do you require Data sharing 2.Do you require Security 3.Number of staff using the network. If you require either 1 or 2, then a server centric system MUST be designed and installed If there are more then say 12 staff using the network then a server centric network should be installed due to its cost effectiveness. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

22. 22 Designing the Network Remember our Network and Server Bottlenecks Your servers should be a powerful computer/s capable of handling all the work your network will throw at them. Don't cut corners by using a bottom-of-the-line computer that you bought at a discount computer store. No substitute for quality. Remember these: 1. Processor 2. Memory 3. Disk 4. Network card Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

23. 23 Designing the Network The Server's Configuration Options All network operating systems have options that you can configure. Unfortunately, no hard-and-fast rules exist for setting these options. Otherwise, you wouldn't have options. The following are some of the more important tuning options available for most servers: Virtual memory options, Disk striping, Network protocols, Free disk space on the server, Servers like to have plenty of breathing room on their disks. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

24. 24 Designing the Network As we assessed from the information given there are 14 staff within AAA Accountants. Therefore a Server Centric system MUST be implemented. Based on this information we now need at least 14 Workstations. Lets assume that the architecture of these workstation are as follows. A good starting point. P4 2.6HzSoftware 1 GB of RamWindows XP 256 Meg Video Card Office 2003 160 HDD MYOB 10/100/1000 Nic In house Access Database Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

25. 25 Designing the Network A General Network Rule Workstations do 95% of there processing Server do 5% of the processing If this is the case then 20 workstation can be located on a network segment, if the server has the same architecture as the workstations. If we change the specification on the server to have more RAM, Faster HDD and CPU or a better motherboard then in theory we can have more workstations on that network segment. Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

26. 26 Designing the Network Other Factors to Consider RAID Amount of Storages space Amount of RAM Network distance (100m) Type of NIC Router or Switch Or just general network traffic Do the users do more right or read request of the servers Possible Server 1 Spec A starting point Quad Core 2.8mHZ 8Gb Ram 1050Mhz 2 x 500Gb HDD (RAID 1) 10/100/1000 Possible Server 2 Spec Quad Core 2.8mHZ 8Gb Ram 1050Mhz 2 x 1TB HDD (Files) 10/100/1000 Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved

27. 27 Designing the Network We can split the work load of the 2 Servers into the following configuration; Server 1DNS, AD, DHCP and Exchange Server(All emails and Permission are handled by this server) Server 2File Server (All files are stored on this server) The following slide will demonstrate how this can be achieved Author: Rodger Burgess 27th October 2008 © Copyright reserved
