Documenting the Existing Network
Creating a Network Diagram
The NetworkingCompany designer examines the existing network to:

Determine if the design goals are realistic and feasible Determine if the existing network meets the expectations for scalability, availability, security, and manageability Identify where new equipment, infrastructure upgrades, and new services can be integrated Ensure that old and new network devices, media, and functions can work together
Upgrading the Stadium Network

Better manage its existing voice, video, and data networks Improve customer service Reduce costs
The network documentation should include:

Logical and physical diagrams of the network Floor plans showing the location of wiring closets and wiring runs Inventory lists of installed network equipment Current network configuration files Inventory lists of network applications
Producing a Network Topology Map
Obtaining Information About Devices and Data Routes

Diagramming the Logical Architecture
Creating an Existing Network Overview Diagram:

The first diagram that the network designer creates is a high-level view of all the stadium network sites The main stadium network The souvenir shop The ticket outlet locations Connectivity to remote sites Connectivity to business partners
Creating Network Segment Diagram
Creates diagram for the logical and physical layouts of the networks installed at each of the various sites The location of the network equipment and wiring closets The logical addressing information The naming information

Strengths and Weaknesses of the Existing Network Strengths of the Existing Stadium Network The designer reviews the current voice and video network documentation to determine the locations of equipment and the various groups who use the services.
Strengths and Weaknesses of the Existing Network
Strengths:
New wiring and adequate wiring closets Adequate space for a new data center Servers and PCs are current models and will not need to be replaced Some existing network switches and routers can be used in the new design Flat network design No Distribution Layer No true Core Layer Servers poorly located Multiple networks that can be difficult to maintain Inadequate IP addressing structure No dedicated bandwidth for WAN connectivity Poorly-implemented wireless Limited security implementations
Weaknesses:

Updating the Existing Cisco IOS
Cisco CCO Features and Navigation

The Cisco.com web site offers tools and online resources The tools and resources include the following:
Documentation - Hardware and software configuration and verification, as well as troubleshooting Cisco products and technologies Tools - Troubleshooting, installation, assessment, and service requests Downloads - Software, specific file releases, and technical support applications Communities and Training - Information on the Networking Professionals Connection, attending Technical Support Seminars, and other training opportunities News - Current topics reported in the Cisco Technical Support Newsletter
Access to these resources depending upon the type of user ACC

Investigating the Installed Cisco IOS software
See activity 3.2.2.3
When the Cisco IOS software on a switch or router is upgraded, the device needs to be rebooted. This process takes the device out of service for a short period of time. Upgrade have to test
Choosing an Appropriate Cisco IOS Image
See activity 3.2.3.1
Choosing an Appropriate Cisco IOS Image

Networking Company staff must check that each device has enough flash and RAM memory to support the new IOS files Archive IOS
Download and Install Cisco IOS software
Step1: Select a IOS Software Image

Memory requirement Interface and Module Support Software Feature Support

Step 2: Identify the Device File System to Copy the Image: The NetworkingCompany staff uses the show file systems command output to locate the Cisco IOS files or images. Step 3: Verify that the TFTP Server Has IP Connectivity to the Device

Step 4: Back Up the Current Configurations to Prepare for the Upgrade Step 5: Copy the IOS Image to the Device: copy tftp flash command Activity 3.2.4.3

Performing a Wireless Site Survey
Visiting the Customer Site

The next step is to evaluate the wireless LAN deployment Before the wireless network design is finalized, the NetworkingCompany staff performs a site survey to determine the best use and placement of the wireless networking components.
The NetworkingCompany guidelines for wireless site survey Preparation

Schedule the site survey with the customer. Dress appropriately for the task. Wear or carry company credentials. Bring the proper equipment (create a standard checklist to ensure that all necessary materials are included). Notify stadium personnel when the staff will arrive and how long the site survey should take.

Site Survey
Check in with the proper staff upon entry into the stadium. Work quickly and professionally to instill a sense of confidence in the customer. Answer questions politely and as completely as possible. Write down any questions that must be answered by other staff members. Inform the customer of the survey procedures. Report back to the customer staff before leaving the premises to inform them of the successful completion of the survey.
Security Safety Guidelines

Follow the recommended safety guidelines to ensure proper operation and safe use of the wireless devices. Obtain customer approval before touching or attaching devices to any existing networking equipment.
Some site visit requirements may include: Access restrictions Clothing Safety equipment Identification Badges Hours of operation Security Prohibited items
Physical Network Considerations
Areas of concern to the designer include:

The many microwave ovens that are located in the concession areas and the luxury boxes Wireless telephones and headsets that are used by the reporters and newsmen Elevator shafts that are located near the outer areas of the restaurant and the luxury suites Thick concrete pillars and walls between the luxury suites
Activity 3.4.2.2
Wireless Site Survey and Planning

Performing a site survey consists of the following steps: Step 1: Define Customer Requirements Step 2: Identify Coverage Areas Step 3: Determine Preliminary AP Locations Step 4: Measure Signal Strength
Wireless Site Survey and Planning

The NetworkingCompany staff performs the following steps: Step 1: Measure the signal strength and speed of a link as they walk
away from the AP. Step 2: Record the readings and measure the distances to the AP when the quality or link speed changes. Step 3: Mark the areas where signals are acceptable on a floor plan.
Game 3.4.3.5
Documenting Network Design Requirements
Creating a Network Design Requirements Document
The NetworkingCompany staff has now completed the Prepare and Plan phases of the network upgrade lifecycle. The first two sections of the Design Requirements document are the Overall Project Goal and the Project Scope. Overall Project Goal
This section states the overall goals of the upgrade. It also specifies how this upgrade will help the stadium management company become more successful.
Project Scope
This section outlines the physical areas, applications, and user groups affected by the network upgrade. It may list components of the network that are beyond the scope of the network upgrade, such as server or application updates.

Business Goals and Technical Requirements
The Network Requirements section has the following four subsections:

Business Goals Technical Requirements Users Applications
Business Goals
Technical Requirements: Scalability Availability Security Manageability
Users In this section of the Design Requirements document, the different user groups and their access requirements are listed. Applications The network traffic characteristics and requirements of various applications affect the design of the network
Activity 3.5.4.4
Existing Network Characterization
The final section of the Design Requirements document includes the following information:
All of the network diagrams that the NetworkingCompany creates to illustrate the existing network The names and IP addresses of servers and important networking components The existing network strengths and weaknesses and how they impact the business goals
