International Plastics Inc. Corporate Headquarters

The network diagram for the corporate headquarters is really a composite of a number of sections: Note the backbone base for this location is 100baseT.

1. The administration section displays the main operational functions (Corporate, HR, etc.) with a computer icon that defines the current number of employees in that function with a description of the computer. There are 36 VOIP telephones in this section.

2. The R&D function has a 1000baseF network backbone and is a totally MAC-based environment. There are 15 employees each with their computers; the section includes 3 high-end color printers and a plotter. The 1000baseF network is connected to the corporate LAN through a switch.

3. The servers and aNAS include WIN server, a WIN Exchange server, a UNIX server, which hosts the corporate SAP ERP SW. All the servers are IBM servers: the WIN servers are IBM HS20 blade servers and the main UNIX server is an IBM p series.

4. A UPS provides backup power for the server room.

5. The last section is the communications environment, which has two main parts: the data link to the Satellite base station through a switch and a VOIP router to connect the two facilities with voice. The satellite operates in Ka band and is setup to handle an OC1 data rate with end-to-end encryption. The second part of the communications environment is a router providing a T3 connection through a firewall to the outside network.
