SilverPeak Assessment of 4 Large Sites with Cisco + Palo Alto Certification: Wingspan Assessments is a division of Fireowls Corp., an Authorized Deployment Partner of Silver Peak Systems. This was an actual assessment performed by a certified SPSX (Silver Peak Expert), Palo Alto expert, and CCIE. Objective This effort is intended to assess a current Silver Peak network for enabling the network at Exponix to allow different types of traffic over public Internet and private transport by using Silver Peak infrastructure, utilizing the Silver Peak appliances in active/standby, and leveraging OSPF routing. 1. General Considerations 1.1 Software Upgrade In order to leverage the latest features and provide fixes to the appliances, a software upgrade is recommended. This is suggested as first step of the deployment phase. In order to leverage the latest features and provide fixes to the appliances, a software upgrade is recommended. • GA-WAN-A • MI-WAN-A 1.2 Deployment Mode In order to take full advantage of the Silver Peak features, it is recommended to deploy all the appliances using inline router mode (ILRM). This will allow a tighter integration to the existing network. 1.3 WAN Interfaces and Labels The current setup includes two WAN links per active appliance. Dallas and Denver have two Internet circuits, whereas Seattle and San Diego have one Internet connection and a point-to-point link connecting them. Optionally, there is opportunity to augment the redundancy and capacity at those sites with one Internet connection each at Seattle and San Diego. Enabling the LAN1 interface as a WAN connection will provide the mentioned extra level of redundancy. For every WAN interface on the Silver Peak appliances, a label is required in order to establish a relationship with the Overlays. The labels currently configured are properly in place. If it is decided to add an extra interface, an extra label would be required. The label distribution is as follows: • San Diego. TU_GA_PTP, Internet_1, Internet_2 (optional). • Seattle. TO_GA_PTP, Internet_1, Internet_2 (optional). • Dallas. Internet_1, Internet_2. • Denver. Internet_1, Internet_2. Finally, it is recommended to create a cross-connect between the two Internet interfaces on each appliance. © 2020 www.WingspanAssessments.com by Fireowls Corp.

The order of the overlays in the Orchestrator (top-bottom) will determine the matching order of the traffic. The new overlays to be created and deployed to the appliances at all locations are: 1.4.1 Real-time Overlay This overlay will take care mainly of voice and video traffic flows. o Type of traffic. Applications/services to be matched are: ▪ DSCP EF – Expedite Forwarding. ▪ CISCO_SKINNY, GOOGLE-TALK, GOOGLE-TALK-VOICE-VIDEO, H_323, HP, IAX2, IVPIP, MGCP, MIRALIX, NETIQ, NVP-II, OCTOPUS, PARADIGM, PERSEUS, PHONE, RTCP, RTP, RTP_MUX, RTP_VIDEO, RTP_VOICE, RTSP, SIP, SIP_TLS, SKYPEFORBUSINESS, SPEECH- DISPATCHER, SPEECH-SYNTHESIS, TEAMSPEAK, TIDAL, TIVOCONNECT, VENTRILO, VERTEL, VIBER, VOICEIP-ACS, VONAGE, WINDOWS-LIVE-MESSENGER, WINMX, ZOOM. o Topology.

Site-specific Actions There are actions required for every location, some are particular to the location/datacenter and others are equivalent to some of the sites. In addition, the appendix A illustrates the final diagrams for the locations. Note: The bandwidth and boost values proposed below are recommended on a first stage basis. It is very important to constantly monitor and optimize these parameters in order to obtain the most out of the Silver Peak solution. 2.1 San Diego • As previously mentioned, WAN-1 needs to be converted to inline router mode (ILRM). • WAN-1 software version needs to be upgraded to match the existing appliances in router mode (8.1.7.8_70865). • Optionally, but recommended, a third WAN interface can be configured with label Internet_2. If this interface is deployed, the next hop for each Internet interface will be the physical IP address of the corresponding Internet router. • Initial Recommended Bandwidth. These values are an estimate based on the current Committed Information Rate, media from traffic graphs, as well as Silver Peak Orchestrator statistics. o Point-to-point: 500Mbps. o Internet VERIZON: 150Mbps. o Internet Comcast: 150Mbps. • Recommended Boost. The suggested value is an approximate using as reference the bandwidth

    Case Study Achieving Resilience During the COVID19 Crisis: BDP Shares their Splashtop Story About BDP Alistair Kell PRINCIPAL, IT AND PROCESS AT BDP Founded in 1961, BDP is the 2nd largest architect-led firm in the UK, with over 16 locations globally and 1,350 employees. BDP has a leading track record in all major sectors, including health, education, workplace, retail, urbanism, heritage, housing, transport, leisure, public safety, and energy utilities. This includes the restoration of the UK Houses of Parliament. Summary Alistair Kell, principal and head of information technology and processes at BDP, explains how during the COVID19 crisis, his company-- an international, interdisciplinary practice of architects, designers, engineers and urbanists -- got all employees working remotely in 48 hours with Splashtop Remote Access Solutions. When COVID19 hit, BDP looked at several options to enable employees to work from home. The number of software employees needed to access for working efficiently, the big size of the team, and a sense of urgency made this quite the challenge: • Hardware needs - Would employees have a personal computer they could connect from at home, or would they only have a BDP laptop? • Keeping the current infrastructure stable - How could BDP keep everything stable while ensuring there were no unnecessary changes to the company underlying infrastructure? • Urgency and cost - How could BDP deploy quickly without incurring an unreasonable cost? Due to all these concerns, BDP believed that the whole process to go remote would take at least two or three weeks of turmoil in getting ready. However, thanks to BDP’s IT team and Splashtop remote access solutions, it didn’t take so long.

  • Remote Process Control Over the Internet

    Remote Process Control Over the Internet

    Session 1520 Remote Process Control over the Internet Mark Smith Purdue University North Central Abstract This paper presents remote process control over the Internet using remote-control computing software. Remote-control computing software allows you to connect to remote computers from your computer and control those systems. You can monitor and control attached system processes, provide problem solving assistance, upload and download files, and even change system parameters. This paper describes what remote-control computing is, who the major players in the industry are, and how it can be used to monitor and control remote processes. A case study of remote-control computing software in operation is also presented, describing how one off-the-shelf package was setup to monitor and control a plant floor production system. Introduction Networking technologies, and especially the Internet, have become a major component of application systems. As we teach the design and implementation of process control systems in the Engineering curriculum, we must recognize that these systems will require capabilities for control and support from remote locations. For example, the need for remote control may be driven by the high cost of a particular process. The Oak Ridge National Laboratory uses remote process control at its High Temperature Materials Laboratory to allow researches from across the country to use a million-dollar electron microscope1. Even when control of the process is not required across the country, there are times when it is helpful (or even critical) to monitor another node on a LAN. For example, Conquergood describes in his research the ability to monitor and control potentially high voltages from one location by gathering voltage information from PCs doing data acquisition from various plant processes2.
