Campus network case study  

Colleage “A”: Build HDN Total solution – backbone/security switches/VIPM

● Introduction Background

– Many security incidents such as looping or spread of worms occur in the school premises, requiring immediate
– Need for IP Management and robust security solution with low cost

● Introduction Effects

– Total Solution effect
• Operational convenience through a single vendor solution
• High interoperability and security features can be achievable through a single vendor solution.

– IP Management and user authentication do not require additional appliances suchs as Probe
• IP management and user authentication is possible only with VIPM and SG security switch without Probe
• IP management and user authentication prevent unauthorized network access and enhances security features for the purpose of intranet protection.

– Providing efficient harmful traffic prevention to a dormitory
• Given the weak security awareness of the students (lack of patching or installing security software), SG security switch can be a useful solution to block harmful traffic.
• The SG security switch can effectively block harmful traffic at the access layer to secure and stabilize the whole network

– Remote access control function
• The history of command and log can be retrieved easily so that no separate history solution is required.
• Administrator assign a different privilege to the user so that he controls individual user.
