Network Installation Service
Network & security appliance installation
Resilient core and edge architectures, configured, deployed and documented. Whether you're upgrading an existing system or starting with a brand new network installation, we offer secure builds from design to deployment.
How I approach new installations
A network installation isn’t finished the moment the lights go green. It’s finished when you fully understand your device and can maintain it yourself.
I’ve been installing network and security appliances for businesses for over 20 years, whether that’s upgrading an existing system or building something new from scratch. This is how I approach it:
Design
Before anything is unboxed, I want to understand what the business needs first. Even if you’ve already purchased the new hardware, I need to make sure that it can provide what you need. If there are any limitations or restrictions, this is the time to identify them. It could save you a lot of money and time in the long run.
Resilience
What happens when your new device fails? You want that answer before the failure, not during it. That doesn’t necessarily mean you need to buy a more expensive solution or twice as much kit, but you do need to understand where the limitations are and where any single points of failure exist.
Deployment
If something doesn’t behave, we roll it back. Nobody should be improvising on a live network. I’ve seen it too many times where a tweak here and there to get something to work ends up affecting a network for weeks, if not months.
Handover
It’s important that you understood your device rather than depend on a third-party company. To do this you need clear documentation of what was built; not just screenshots, but an explanation of the why. You should also retain full access to maintain your systems.
