Module Strategy
Use the following strategy to present this module:

Evaluating the Existing Configuration
Tell the students that in this module, they will use their knowledge of
Microsoft Windows
®
2000 networking services to design networking
solutions. Point out that they will test their knowledge by working on an
organizational scenario.
In this section:
• Explain that students will design networking solutions for an investment
firm scenario. Tell them that before designing a solution, they must
identify the current status of the design project.
• Explain that the design requirements and limitations must be identified
when making design decisions.

Identifying the Essential Design Decisions

Emphasize that while designing a network, it is essential to identify which
networking services to include in the network design and where to place the
servers to provide essential support for the solution.
In this section:
• Avoid spending too much time explaining the networking services.
Focus on the selection of the appropriate networking service for a given
scenario.
• Point out that the placement of servers running the networking services
is as important as selecting the appropriate service.
• Emphasize that for each of the networking servers placed within any
location, the design options for the service are specified.

Providing Security
If the network is carrying confidential data, then it is the responsibility of
the network designer to ensure that the network is secure. In this section,
brief the students on the potential security risks to networks and how to
prevent those risks from occurring.

Enhancing the Availability and Performance
Point out that in a network design, certain networking services are essential
for the continued operation of mission-critical applications. When these
networking services are unavailable or respond slowly, the applications that
the services support also experience outages and slow performance.
In this section:
• Emphasize that identifying the networking services that require
improved availability and performance is the first step in making the
solution available.
• Explain that depending on the networking service, its availability and
performance can be improved by adding servers, subnets, routers, proxy
servers, and remote access servers.

When your network design includes confidential data that is transmitted on a
private network or over public networks, the data is at risk. Therefore, your
network design must ensure that each user who requires access to the
confidential data is authenticated.

The following table lists the security risks and why the data is at risk.
Data is at risk Because there is a possibility that

Within each location Brokers can access other brokers’ clients.
Customers may connect to the network while in the
branch office and access others’ accounts.
Network administrative staff can access any of the
firm’s accounts and records.
Between locations Confidential data is transmitted between locations over
public networks.
From the Web-based
application
Brokers and customers can transmit confidential data
over the Internet.
Servers that host the Web-based applications are
accessible from the Internet.
From brokers accessing the
private network remotely
Brokers can transmit confidential data over public
networks.

After you identify the security risks, you need to decide how to prevent the
security risks from occurring at any location. For each location where there is a
security risk, you must prescribe a response that prevents access to the
confidential data.
Within Each Location
You can prevent the security risks within each location by:


Encrypting (by using IPSec) all confidential data transmitted within the
private network.

Authenticating all brokers by using Active Directory authentication.

Authenticating all customers when they access the Web-based application
while connecting to the network within each location.

Requiring HyperText Transmission Protocol Secure (HTTPS) for all
transactions on the Web-based application.

Between Locations
You can prevent the security risks between locations by:

Requiring the routers that connect locations transmit all data through a VPN
tunnel.

Encrypting the data by using 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES), which
is the strongest level of encryption that can be exported outside the U.S. and
Canada.

Authenticating the routers by using MS-CHAP v2 and IPSec.
