Executive Summary
Daemons Frequent and Urgent Net-Traders LLP (DaFun) is a new Hedge Fund company, which
needs a High Frequency Trading platform to be successful and provide return of investments to
their clients. DaFun is looking for a network that can suit their overall business goal. For this
reason DaFun has hired the team of Shampy Singh and Tina Piotrowski to find an innovative top
tier, fast-paced and low latency solution.
DaFun has recently acquired office space in Chicago, New York, Nassau and Toronto. DaFun
has also decided to lease rack space in both Chicago and New York Solsticix locations. Toronto
acts as the headquarters of the entire company and supports about 140 staff and 13 guest office.
Toronto also has the main Data Center for all of DaFun. Toronto is not as dependent on low
latency as other locations such as Chicago and New York Solsticix locations.
Nassau Headquarters in the Bahamas only has two people in staff and five guest offices. The
National Bank of the Bahamas and United Funds of the Bahamas is used as the main banks for
DaFun. Nassau is not highly reliant on low latency, but still needs to be connected with Toronto
Headquarters for financial reasons.
Chicago and New York Office both support 20 traders and trade strategist. Traders input trade
strategies and monitor trade daily. Traders and trade strategists need to have immediate access to
overwrite portal in order to change trading parameters. Both offices need to support low latency
and high availability solution.
All trading for DaFun will occur in the Chicago and New York Solsticix locations. These data
centers act as a colocation for both the MYSE and MASDAQ. DaFun will be using a trading
application called DGenie, which will be placed at the Solsticix locations because of the
proximity to the exchanges.
In order to stay competitive in a highly competitive market, the Singh and Piotrowski team will
have to find a solution that encompasses finding the best networking hardware that will suit our
need for a low latency and high availability network. We need to use a Telco provider that can
provide us with the connections that we need, have a high availability and provide a low
downtime guarantee.

Technical Summary
The trading industry is a very fast past industry. Any mistake, maybe seconds could cost
thousands if not millions of dollars. Our company has designed this proposal to the needs of
DaFun and also keeping in mind what is needed to have DaFun succeed for years to come. The
network that needs to be built must have low-latency, redundant systems and must have high
performance. The main components that will impact these requirements are the network and
server equipment. For this proposal we have used Cisco across the board, Cisco has excellent
service and reputation. We have chosen the Cisco Nexus 3548 for all critical areas. This switch
has the best in class feature sets, best in class for latency, around 300ns switching and routing
latency and 50ns latency to the servers. Also, the Nexus 3548 handles market volatility and
micro bursts very well. To meet the needs specified, this switch will be perfect for the low
latency infrastructure of DaFun. For the data center we will be using the Cisco Nexus 5596T.
This has a throughput of roughly 2 Tbps, this will allow high availability to all development and
production servers. At the non-critical access layer switches, the Cisco Catalyst 2960x will be
used, this is also best in the class for enterprise class access for branches. At Nassau we will be
using the Cisco 3945E.
High performance and low latency is very important in this environment, because of this there
will be no virtualization used at the Chicago and New York co-locations or at the Chicago and
New York offices. At these locations we will be deploying HP ProLiant BL620c Gen7 servers.
These servers will have SSD drives, duo 10 core Intel Xeon processor and 64GB of RAM. These
will be directly connected with 10 Gb connections allowing a low latency network path.
However, there will be virtualization used at the main data center in Toronto. This will allow us
to have replicated testing and development environments. We will be using VMWare vSphere to
make this possible. The analysts at the other offices will be able to use the development
resources as they deem necessary. The servers that will be used at the Toronto Datacenter are the
HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 servers. These servers will have Duo Intel Xeon 2.6Ghz processors
and 128GB of RAM. The RAM in these servers, is able to be upgrade to 1 TB. Most of the
servers will be running virtualization other than the latency dependent applications.
For the massive database storage needs, we will be implementing the HP ProLiant DL560 Gen8
server with the HP MSA 2040 SAN. These will be located at the New York and Chicago
Offices, since we will be getting the feed from those locations. This allows 250Tb of storage.
This SAN will allow a 10Gbps iSCSi connection running Raid 5. This will allow for high
redundancy. Since each location will have this setup, if any hardware failure were to happen that
made the data unrecoverable, this will not cause a loss of data since both locations will have this
data available.

6
The WAN connectivity between Toronto, Chicago and New York offices will be 100 Mbps
MPLS over Ethernet and 1 Gbps Metro Ethernet from Chicago and New York offices to their co-
locations. These connections are provided from JP Telco and KQ Telco. We will be use two
different connections for redundancy. There will be a point to point connection from Toronto to
Nassau also provided by JP and KQ Telco. There will also be 100 Mb Internet connections at all
locations except at the Chicago and New York Solsticix locations since this will not be necessary
and also to decrease security risks. These internet connections will be using Cisco ASA 5585
firewalls for security. Also, the routers that will be used to terminate these connections will be
the ASR 1004 except at the Nassau location, which will be using the Cisco 3945E.
The operating systems that will be used on these servers will be either Microsoft Server 2012 or
Red Hat Enterprise. This will depend on which application will be running on that server. The
user desktops will vary from who will be using the desktops. These will range from the HP Z420
with i7 Processors to HP Z230 with i5 processors.

Wide Area Network Infrastructure
Wide Area Network Technology
Wide Area Network Technology
For DaFun to be successful, the technology we choose needs to be secure, redundant and be
highly available. When considering any technology we need to keep these requirements in mind.
Connecting all the office together will consist of using point to point and MPLS connections.
The point to point will be from Nassau and Toronto Headquarters, since there are no other
connections available. The MPLS over Ethernet will be from Chicago and New York office to
Toronto also, from Toronto to Chicago and New York Co-locations.
The Chicago and New York Co-Locations will have BGP peering with Lyric A and Lyric B as
well as having BGP peering with the Exchanges. The connections from each Solsticix location to
Lyric A and Lyric B will have a 10 Gbps connection. The BGP numbers can be seen below:

We will be using two providers: JP and KQ Telco. By using two providers this will ensure that
we have redundancy that is critical for the trading and Hedge Fund environment. They also
provide the availability that we need, which will be explained more in depth later on. At the
Nassau Headquarters there will be a T1 point-to-point connection to Toronto Headquarters,
National Bank of Bahamas, United Funds of Bahamas and to the Internet. For redundancy there
will be two connections between all T1 point to point connections from JP and KQ Telco.
Between the Chicago and New York and the Chicago and New York Solsticix, respectively there
will be two 1Gbps point-to-point connection from JP and KQ Telco. The Toronto Headquarters,
Chicago and New York Offices will have two direct point-to-point 100Mbps to the internet per
office from JP and KQ Telco. There will also be two 100Mbps MPLS connection between
Toronto Headquarters to Chicago and New York Office from JP and KQ Telco. There will also
an additional 100Mbps MPLS between Toronto Headquarters and Chicago and New York
Solsticix. The MPLS connection from Toronto to the Solsticix locations is there to be the last
resort in case the two connections from the New York or Chicago offices go down to their
Solsticix co-locations. This can be seen in detail on in the Fig 1.1.

Logical diagram
The logical diagram helps to give you a basic overview of how the future network will be
connected. The logical diagram of DaFun’s Wide Area Network is precarious because it helps to
outline how we are connecting six offices across three countries and thousands of miles. We
decided to use JP and KQ Telco as our provider between all of the offices. We also decided to
use 10 Gbps connections with Lyric A and Lyric B as our market data providers for our Chicago
and New York Solsticix locations and 1 Gbps connections with MYSE and MASDAQ.
As seen in the diagram, each location has two connections to the internet. The reason we decided
to do this is because it provides redundancy in case one internet line goes down. Secondly, we
decided not to route all traffic through one office through MPLS is because of security. If one
office were to be compromised, then all of the offices could be at risk since the firewalls would
be only at one location. Also, there is a BGP peering from Lyric A and B, via multicast, so in
case one router with the Lyric A connection were to go down, we still have another redundant
connection from another router from Lyric B. The feeds coming from Lyric A and B are exactly
the same. Also, since we have a BGP connection directly with these services we will not require
any firewalls at these locations. As seen below, the firewalls are only needed where we are
communicating to the public web, which would be the internet.
In the highly unlikely case that from our remote offices; the main and the backup link were to go
down. We have a MPLS direct connection from Toronto to the Chicago and New York Solsticix
co-locations. This will allow analysts at the Toronto location to act fast, and turn off any
algorithms necessary or make any changes they might find needed. This is a very good backup
design incase all connection is lost from any of the offices to their co-locations.
Each office is connected to Toronto by a 100 Mb MPLS over Ethernet direct connection, except
for Nassau, which has a point to point T1 connection. This will allow hosting of all domain
controllers, DNS, and DHCP servers at one location. Each office will be able to get authenticated
from Toronto and this frees up more space at each location to handle the necessary Trading and
data handling that is necessary for DaFun to be successful.

Router specification
The router we chose was a Cisco ASR 1004 for the Toronto Headquarters, Chicago and New
York Offices and Solsticix locations. This router provides the high-performing edge solution for
the private WAN and WAN aggregation. These routers support provide layer 2 tunneling
protocol, layer 3 VPN, IPv4, IPv6 and Quality of Service.
In the Nassau Headquarters there is a Cisco 3945E Router. This router supports the T1 point-to-
point connections that are from the National Bank of the Bahamas, United Funds of the
Bahamas, Internet and Toronto. This router will still support high performance WAN
environments. Also, supported on this router are VPN and VoIP which is all that is really needed
in Nassau.

14
Telecommunication facility (WAN links) specification and pricing
JP and KQ Telco provide the connections we need to make DaFun prosperous. JP and KQ Telco
provide 99.99% of uptime for their services. This means that if there is any downtime it is:
● 1.01 minutes per week
● 4.32 minutes per month
● 52.56 minutes per year
There is redundancy in place at every office and headquarter if there is any downtime or
equipment failure. Each site has redundant internet connectivity connecting to redundant routers
or firewalls. Each point to point connection is terminated into a differing network device to
provide the redundancy. If the path or equipment fails, the protocols we have in place will
reroute traffic accordingly. We will be using EIGRP as our internal routing protocol and BGP for
the external routing protocol.

Toronto Office Infrastructure
Logical diagram
When coming up with a design for the Toronto Headquarters, we need to keep in mind that it
should be easy to follow and functional. As more complex the network gets, the chances of error
increases. This diagram can be seen Fig 2.1.
From the Chicago and New York Office there is a redundant 100Mbps MPLS connection.
There is another 100Mbps MPLS connection coming from both the Chicago and New York
Solsticix locations. There is also a T1 point-to-point connection from Nassau Headquarters. All
of the connections terminate at one of two core routers (e.g. TOR-HQ-CR1 or TOR-HQ-CR2).
The connections from Nassau and both the Chicago and New York Office have two connections
from two different ISPs that will terminate on the opposing core routers for redundancy. Lastly,
the 100Mbps internet connection will also have two connections from two different ISPs and
terminate on opposing routers (TOR-HQ-INT1 or TOR-HQ-INT1).
Internet traffic will hit the Firewalls (TORF-HQ-FW1 or TOR-HQ-FW2) then proceed to be
routed through our DMZ network. Within our DMZ there are three servers: public web server,
DNS and email server. Traffic that is permitted will be routed to another set of Firewalls (TOR-
HQ-FW3 or TOR-HQ-FW4) which will end up at the Core switches (TOR-HQ-CSW1 or TOR-
HQ-CSW2). The traffic will then proceed to go through the Distribution switches and Access
switches and down to their respective location either the users or the data center. Traffic that is
coming directly from the Chicago and New York Office, Chicago and New York Solsticix and
the Nassau Headquarters is routed through the core routers first, then passes through the
distribution switches and access switches to its respective location either the users or data center.
All connections terminate into either a Cisco ASA 5585 Firewall or a Cisco ASR 1004 Router.
All traffic that is permitted into the network is forwarded through a Cisco 4510RE switch then
goes to the access layer Cisco 2950X switch or Cisco Nexus 5596T. This equipment provides the
low latency, high availability and high performance that the Toronto Headquarter needs as the
center of the company. Connections between devices will be either Multimode fiber or CAT6
cabling.

For the Toronto office we have been given an IP address allocation of 100.1.2.0/24 from JP
Telco and an IP address allocation of 88.1.2.0/24 by KQ Telco. As seen in Fig. 2.2, the public IP
addresses have been assigned to all routers, firewalls going into the DMZ. NAT will be
performed on the servers inside of the DMZ with a 1 to 1 IP translation. NAT/PAT will be
performed on all addresses coming out from TOR-HQ-DMZR1 and TOR-HQ-DMZR2.
For the private network we have allocated 10.2.1.0 /24 addresses for all of the networking
equipment. These were broken into /30 subnets for each link. The devices that will be using
DHCP for dynamic addressing have been given 10.2.16.0 /20 subnet. This will give the DHCP to
allocate 4094 addresses. The server’s subnet has been given a 10.2.32.0 /20 subnet range. This
will give the Toronto office 4094 addresses that are available to be assigned statically. The
devices and users inside are able to communicate with all offices through MPLS over Ethernet.

Physical layout
The physical layout can be seen on Fig. 2.3. The circled T’s represent where the telecom closets
need to be located. User work stations, VoIP phones (Cisco Unified IP Phone 7942G) and
wireless Access Point will terminate in these telecom closets. The circled DC represents the Data
Center that will contain all the servers. All internet and internal WAN connections will terminate
here as well. We also need to consider physical security for this physical layout. The data center
houses the critical information, multi-millions of dollars in equipment and all the connections to
the internal WAN and internet. On a hardware level, there are measures that can be taken to
ensure that the device is secure and encrypted properly. The data center needs to be locked at all
times, and access should only be granted to those who need to be there i.e. IT staff. There should
be a form of surveillance to watch the room and log who goes in and out. Electronic locks help to
keep log of who goes in and out. As an extra precaution racks should be locked inside the data
center. The telecom closets also need a form of physical security. On a hardware level, the
switches will be configured with passwords, which will be needed for them to be unlocked.
Fig. 2.3

25
Physical Diagram
This rack design encompasses both Telecom closets that are in the Toronto Headquarters. The
Cisco 2960X switches will connect the workstation users, Access Points and VoIP phones to the
internal WAN and internet. The Cisco 4510 distribution switches will connect back to the data
center. All connections from the workstation users, Access Points and VoIP phones will connect
using CAT 6 cabling. This design is meant to support all the cubicle and offices that have
multiple drops (drops mean physical connections to the network). There will be a connection for
each workstation and separate connections for each VoIP phones.

26
Authentication
Authentication for all offices will be single sign on (SSO). This will be hosted from the Toronto
Headquarters. Any domain sign on will be authenticated from Toronto through the domain
controllers. This will help to centralize all sign on; also this has been designed to be highly
available. No downtime is expected from the implementation. .
Active Directory
The software we will be using to authenticate all domain logins will be Active Directory (AD).
AD has many features that will be helpful for this enterprise. Features such as, you will be able
to separate server names by location by OU same goes for users in different locations. AD also
has a function for SSO, which you may implement in many of the applications, such as any of
the portals that require domain logins.
All users from Chicago, New York and Nassau will be authenticated through the Toronto office.
Our MPLS over Ethernet will allow this fairly easily. Since there are redundant connections, the
SLA is 99.999% up time. The way the datacenter has been designed, there will be one Active
Directory server that will be in use and two backup in case anything were to happen to the main
server. This is mirrored anytime any change is made, so both will have the same information in
it.
Domain Controller
All users will be authenticated through the domain controllers. There will be one primary domain
controller. The other two will be the backup in case the primary goes down. All of the data will
be the same across all DC’s.
DNS
There will also be a Domain Name System that will be in the Microsoft Server 2012. This will
allow the engineers to only remember the naming convention to login into servers and the
networking equipment. This makes it easier and faster to remember names instead of IP
Addresses.
DHCP
The DHCP will also be on a Microsoft Server, this will allow the automatic assignment of IP
addresses to all machines. Making it easier for the engineers so they will not need to statically
assign an IP address to every machine they build.
Internet Connectivity
The internet connects to our internet router. Since we are using two different providers (JP and
KQ) each service is connected to either router, this helps to ensure that there is redundancy if the
service provider goes down or if the router malfunctions. Internet traffic will be routed through
our internet routers to (if permitted) to the DMZ network. Within our DMZ there are three

27
servers, public web server, DNS and email server. Traffic will be routed to the servers or if
allowed to the Core switches. The traffic will then proceed to go through distribution switches
and access switches.
Wireless
There will be a total of 14 Access Points (Cisco C602I) that will be placed around the Toronto
Office that provide coverage throughout the office. The coverage will provide users with
seamless coverage throughout the Toronto Headquarters. All Access Points are power over
Ethernet (PoE) and will terminate in either the telecom closets or datacenter. All access point
will be connected with CAT 6 cabling.
Voice/Video Conferencing
The voice and video conferencing tool that we will be implementing is Cisco’s WebEx. This is a
VoIP solution that any of the employees may use on their personal laptops, or from any
computer with a video camera. This will be implemented at each office, making it easier to have
conversations without having to fly over to the offices.
This solution allows you to have conference calls with anyone in the world, up to 25 people per
conversation. With this anyone can share his or her desktop, documents, applications and also be
able to give remote control access to anyone in the conversation. It is a very easy and powerful
tool.
Monitoring
When it comes to moving parts, there should always be tools to monitor what is happening.
Knowing what is going to happen to the equipment could help prevent many extensive issues

28
and downtime. Monitoring has been added to this proposal for this reason. Below you will see
solutions for Network equipment monitoring along with Server monitoring solutions.
Network Monitoring
The network monitoring solution that we will be implementing is the Network Performance
Monitor by SolarWinds. This is a very reliable solution that uses MIBs to monitor temperature,
fan speed, and power supply. The Network Performance Monitor also tracks response time,
availability and uptime of routers and switches. This will allow the enterprise to detect and
diagnose network issues before any outages occur. The GUI is very intuitive. Few examples may
be seen below:

29

30
Server Monitoring
We will be implementing PRTG Network Monitoring for the servers. This solution is also web
based, installed on Windows Server 2012. This will allow the enterprise to monitor all servers at
every location and not just at Toronto. This will monitor bandwidth usage, CPU usage, Ping rate,
disk space, and uptime/downtime. There will be an email that will be sent out with a report of the
top 100 instance of what was stated above. These will show if there are any devices that need
action to be taken on or if there is a recurring culprit. Below an example of the GUI may be seen:

31

32
Toronto Data Center
Logical diagram
The data center has sensitive information stored including the daily backups from all of the
virtual machines and physical servers. So there must be redundancy and a fault tolerant design.
In Fig.3.1, you are able to see the design that has been proposed for the data center. There are
two core routers that have redundant connections from all ISPs. These routers then have
connections to the core switches. Keep in mind that there are multiple links that go to the core
switches and core switches to distribution switches that are aggregated together. So it will only
fail over to the other switch if all links go down or if the core router goes down.
The server switches (TOR-HQ-SSW1 and TOR-HQ-SSW2) will then be connected to the 6
c7000 chassis and also the EMC VNX8000 backup units. They all have multiple redundant fiber
connections to the switches. Fig.3.1

33
The IP addressing has been kept simple in the Toronto data center. Simplicity allows it to be
easier to solve any issues that might arise. The networking devices were given a 10.2.1.0/24
allocation that has been split into /30 for every link. For the servers the IP address range of
10.2.16.0/20 has been allocated. The 6 HP c7000 chassis will have two Onboard Controllers, two
on each chassis for redundancy, both having a fiber connection to the switches. There will be
multiple IP addresses, and also depending on how many virtual machines are created. So the IP
address scheme for this was not shown.

Physical Design
The Toronto Data Center will consist of six racks that will house our network hardware and
servers. These racks have been designed with redundancy in mind. For example TOR-HQ-FW1
will not have TOR-HQ-FW2 in the same rack; they will be in opposite racks on different power
circuits. Just in case one rack loses power the chances of the other rack going down are slim. The
racks that have been selected are 45Us in size and are designed for maximum flexibility for
mounting equipment, thermal, and cable and power management. Each rack will have two PDUs
mounted to the side of it that each provides 24 outlets. All connections terminate in to Cisco
ASR 1004 routers, these high performance routers have the ability to handle high traffic quickly
and efficiently. All traffic that is routed will be sent to Cisco Nexus 5596T or Cisco 4510E
switches. These switches are low latency and provide the lowest delay in packets. There is also
one EMC VNX8000 storage system that will be in the data center. These are not shown below,
but will be used for storage. There will be three UPS Eaton 9390IT to support the power
consumption of the data center.

36

37

38
Power specifications
Out of all the locations, Toronto will have the most power consumption. For this reason we will
be using the Eaton 9390IT Uninterruptible Power Supplies. There will be three UPS devices to
support the amount of wattage that we will have. This UPS is designed to support up to 36,000
watts for 30 minutes. The power will need to be divided amongst the UPS to ensure that if there
is a power failure each UPS can handle the wattage. This will also provide that extra redundancy
for our network in case a UPS fails. This UPS system has been chosen because it uses 99 percent
efficiency to reduce energy and heat costs. This system works as a plug-and-play procedure,
which makes it easy to set up. The table listed below depicts the power consumption for all of
the Toronto Headquarters.

Cooling specification
There are many things to consider when having to cool a data center with the amount of
equipment that Toronto Data Center has. When setting up the data center we need to consider
having Hot and Cold Aisle. Hot and Cold aisle are design to prevent the mixing of hot and cold
air. You have to design these aisles so that only cold air is being absorbed through the intake on
devices and the hot air is being push out into an area where it can't be absorbed by other devices.
Fig. 3.3
Fig 3.3 shows one of the many options of setting up a hot and cold zone. There are many varying
opinions on what the temperature should be in a data center. For the amount of wattage that is
being used, the support staff that will be there daily, UPS, and lighting, we recommend that the
temperature be between 55 to 60F. The cabinets that we have chosen help us to control the
airflow that is coming out of devices; we can choose the direction that we want it to go.
Servers
In the Toronto Data Center we decided to go with two types of servers. The first one would be
the HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8 and the second type is the HP ProLiant BL620c Gen7. Alongside
the servers we will be running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Windows Server 2012. Most of
the nodes will be virtualized and only the most critical services will be running straight off of the
hardware.
Development
We have included a development environment in the plans since there was a concern to test new
services and changes in production, which is not recommended since testing services and
changes in production could lead to unplanned downtime and interrupting trading. All of the
development environment will be virtualized. This will allow developers to test out any changes
without having to worry about bringing anything down that shouldn’t be down. All of the

40
production environment will also be replicated into this environment, all of the trades for the day
and any strategies that are used during the trading day alongside with any programs that are used.
This will insure the changes or new services the developers are implementing will not break
anything else. These development boxes will be on the HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8. These boxes
will have two Intel Xeon 2.6GHz and 128GB of RAM per box. So this can be allocated as
required for the new Development VMs. Also, this is upgradable to 512GB of RAM per box, in
case more RAM is needed. There will be a total of 48 of the HP BL460c Gen8 at the Toronto
office. Inside of these boxes there are two 500GB Drives, equaling up to 24TB of hard drive
space.
Production
The production servers will have all of the critical services and applications running. This
includes the external customer and trader portal system. Likewise, the trading strategy input and
emergency overwrite portal, alongside with the DNS server, DHCP server, AD and the domain
controllers. The servers that will be handling all of the production data will be the HP ProLiant
BL620c Gen7. The specs for the server are as follows: 64GB RAM, 2 X 10-core Intel Xeon
processor 2.00GHz. The RAM is upgradeable to 1TB. Most of the applications will be run on

41
VMs, which will have redundant VMs in case one would fail or anything were to happen to it.
Virtualization
VMWare vSphere Enterprise edition will be the virtualization environment that we will be using.
VMWare has many advanced features that will come in handy in the data replication and backup
processes. Using vSphere allows us to have many data clusters where multiple virtual machines
can run. The data clusters are backed up in case something goes corrupt. The Enterprise edition
includes:

42
Backup and Disaster Recovery
Backup and Disaster recovery is very important issues that need to be looked at when having an
ample amount of important information. The last thing one needs to worry about is something
failing and not having a backup to restore the data. Since this issue is highly important, we
decided to host all of the backup servers at the Toronto office. This will allow us to have all of
the backups at one consolidated place. Also, the backups that are in house are daily uploaded to
the Amazon Glacier, to house this information off site. In case something was to happen to the
information in the backup servers on site. Amazon Glacier is a cloud solution for archiving data.
The onsite solution that we decided to go with was the EMC VNX8000. This has a 3 PB hard
drive capability and can be maxed out at 6 PB. Also, it is connected to the network via fiber.
The data will be backed up in this solution, and backed up to the Amazon cloud daily. The data
that is backed up onsite will be stored for one month. Then it will be deleted. However, this data
will always be available on the cloud in case it is ever needed.
The offsite solution, as discussed before is the Amazon Glacier. This is a cloud solution that
allows the archival of unlimited data. This is a highly available solution with 99.99999% uptime.
Only seconds of downtime is expected per year. The data will go through the Internet connection
and if ever needed, it can be retrieved at any time.

Nassau Headquarter Network Infrastructure
Logical diagram
The logical connections for Nassau will not be as complicated as the rest of the locations. At
Nassau we have two T1 connections from separate providers for the Internet; this will provide
redundancy in case one of the links was to go down. These connections enter two separate
firewalls and into separate routers. We have two separate T1 connections from different
providers going to the National Bank of the Bahamas and United Funds of the Bahamas. Having
two links from different providers gives us redundancy so we do not lose any connection to the
banks. This logical diagram can be seen at Fig. 4.1.
Fig. 4.1

48
IP Address Scheme
For each Internet link we have been provided with a 100.1.1.0 /24 allocation for JP Telco and for
KQ Telco we have been provided with an 88.1.1.0 /24 allocation. As we can see from Fig. 4.2,
we have allocated the IP addresses that were given to the addresses on the routers and firewall
interfaces. The firewalls will perform NAT overload (PAT) the internal private addresses to one
single public IP address. We decided to not use the full /24 allocation inside since we have a
point-to-point connection with the Toronto office, this will allow us to use private addressing to
communicate directly with that office through that point-to-point.
The 10.1.1.0 /24 block will be dedicated to any networking equipment and the 10.1.2.0 /24 block
will be reserved for DHCP to assign to all other devices that do not need a static IP. Since there
are only a few employees and only limited visitors that will be coming to this location, a private
/24 allocation will suffice.

Physical layout
Nassau’s office layout can be seen in Fig. 4.3. The telecom closet can be seen at the upper left
corner and indicated with the red-circled T. This diagram also shows the locations of the Access
Points and also the rooms in the office.
Fig. 4.3

50
Physical diagram
The data center will house the equipment for Nassau Headquarters to the Internet and the internal
WAN. The equipment will provide Nassau Headquarters with the capabilities to access the
Internet; connect to the internal WAN network and both banks. All T1 connections terminate
into a Cisco 3945E router, Internet traffic is routed through Cisco ASA 5585-X and internal
traffic is immediately terminated on the core routers. All traffic (that is permitted) is sent to the
Cisco 2960X Switches. The assumption can be made that all user workstations, VoIP phones and
access point will terminate in the Data Center. Access Points will terminate into the wireless
LAN controller to provide for easy configuration and deployment.

51
Power Consumption
Nassau is our smallest office, but it still needs redundancy in power for its equipment. We will
be using an Eaton FERRUPS rack mount UPS system to support the power consumption. This
UPS is able to handle full power for 12 minutes if the power does fail at Nassau headquarters.
This UPS provides customizable receptacles, input plugs and voltage matching transformers.
There will only be a need for one UPS at this location.

Internet and Connections
For the Internet connection we are using T1 connections from JP Telco and KQ Telco. The
reason for two is redundancy. If one line were to go down, we still have the second ISP to keep
the Internet connection going. JP Telco has provided us with a /24 allocation for 100.1.1.0 and
KQ Telco has provided us a /24 allocation of 88.1.1.0.
The connection to Toronto HQ is also provided by JP Telco and KQ Telco, these are redundant
point to point connections. Since most of the Finances will be going here and being transferred to
the banks, having redundancy is very keen

52
Wireless Internet
Nassau will have 3 Access Points in the office. This can be seen in Fig: 6.4.1. Having 3 AP’s in
the office allows for maximum coverage. There will be one Wireless Controller in the Telecom
closet and these AP’s will be connected to this WLC.

Chicago Office
Logical diagram
The Chicago Office is supporting 20 traders and trade strategist. This office has a dual point-to-
point 100Mbps connection from both JP and KQ Telco and terminates in either CHI-OFF-INT1
or CHI-OFF-INT2. This will give traders or trade strategist to do any research that might be
required of them quickly. Our internal WAN has two connections that either terminate in CHI-
OFF-CR1 or CHI-OFF-CR2. There is a dual direct point-to-point 1Gbps connection between the
Chicago Office and the Chicago Solsticix. Lastly, there is a dual 100Mbps MPLS connection
between the Chicago Office and the Toronto Headquarters. The routers that terminate all of the
connections to the Chicago Office are Cisco ASR 1004 and Internet traffic is firewalled by Cisco
ASA 5585. The Cisco Nexus 3548 switches are used to forward traffic to the users.

57
IP Address Scheme
For each Internet link we have been provided with a 100.1.3.0 /24 allocations from JP Telco and
from KQ Telco we have been provided with an 88.1.3.0 /24 allocations. As we can see from
Fig.5.1, we have allocated the IP addresses that were given to us on the routers and firewall
interfaces. The firewalls will NAT/PAT the internal private addresses out to the Internet. We
decided to not use the full /24 allocation inside since we have an MPLS connection with the
Toronto office, this will allow us to use private addressing to communicate directly with that
office through that MPLS over Ethernet.
The IP Address will be in the range of 10.3.1.0 /24 for the networking equipment. This has been
broken down into /30 for each link. We have reserved the 10.3.16.0/20 for DHCP. This will be
dynamically assigned to devices that will connect to this private network, which does not require
static IPs. The 10.3.32.0/20 block has been reserved for all servers. The static IP for servers will
be pulled from this allocation.

Physical layout
The circled red T is the location of the Telecom room for the Chicago Office. This is a shared
space between all tenants on the floor. I will make the assumption that all network drops and
connections will terminate in the Telecom room. Since we are using a shared space it is
important to remember physical security. Physical security of our hardware is very prevalent in
this situation, subsequently we can’t control who enters into our telecom room (shared space).
We need to lock all our equipment up and make sure all configurations that are done on the
equipment are encrypted correctly. Not knowing what the space looks like or how much is
allocated to us, it might be wise to consider fencing in our equipment for that added layer of
security.

60
Physical diagram
At the Chicago Office there is a telecom room that is shared with the other tenants on the floor.
This room will house the hardware that we will be using to connect Chicago Office to the
Internet and the internal WAN. All Internet and internal WAN connections will terminate into
one of four Cisco ASR 1004 Routers. All Internet traffic will be routed through one of two Cisco
ASA 5585 Firewalls. All traffic will be sent to one of two Cisco Nexus 3548 Switches. An
assumption can be made that all user workstations, VoIP phones and Access Points are
terminated in the telecom closet. CAT 6 cabling will terminate in the Nexus 3548 using a GLC-T
Compatible 1000Base-T Copper SFP. The PDU is attached vertically to accommodate for the
spacing on the rack. The routers that are being used are designed for High Performance routing
which ensures QoS (Quality of Service), high availability and high bandwidth speeds. The
switches that are being used are low latency switches that will decrease the delay. This will help
be beneficial for the traders that are in Chicago to get their information fast.

61
Power Consumption
There will be one Eaton 9390IT will be present for the Chicago location. The UPS will be able to
cover any power is to go down for 30 minutes. This UPS is designed to support up to 36,000
watts for 30 minutes. It is its own unit that stands on its own.

Servers
The rest of the servers that will be at this location will be the HP ProLiant 620c. There will be 8
of these blades at this location. The specifications for the server are as follows: 64GB RAM, 2 X
10-core Intel Xeon processor 2.00GHz. The RAM is upgradeable to 1TB. Some the services will
be on VMs, however any of the important services that retrieve information will be running on
the hardware and not through a virtual machine.
The development environment will be hosted at the Toronto datacenter. The developers will be
able to connect to any of the servers through the MPLS connection and make changes or add
services to their VMs from there. This removes the need for development boxes on-site at the
Chicago office.
Historian Database
The Historian Database will be on a completely different server. Since we need to be able to
store 50TB of data, that will be update every day. We decided to go with a SAN solution for this.

62
This will allow us to store this data plus be able to back this up since we will be using Raid 5,
everything from the disks on the main SAN will be backed up on 3 copies of disks. If one of the
drives fail no data will be lost, this also allows the engineer to be able to switch out the drive
without having to worry about turning off the SAN since the drives are hot swappable. This will
be at both the New York office and Chicago Office.
The SAN solution we are going with is the HP MSA 2040 SAN Dual Controller SFF Storage
with the MSA 2040 LFF disk Enclosure expansion. This will allow up to 288 TB of space. This
SAN is connected via Fiber to a HP ProLiant DL560 Gen8 Server.
Voice/Video Conferencing
The voice and video conferencing tool that we will be implementing is Cisco’s Webex. This is a
VoIP solution that any of the employees may use on their personal laptops, or from any
computer with a video camera. This will be implemented at each office, making it easier to have
conversations without having to fly over to the offices.
This solution allows you to have a conference with anyone in the world, up to 25 people per
conversation. With this anyone can share their desktop, documents, applications and also be able
to give remote control access to anyone in the conversation. It is a very easy and powerful tool.
Monitoring
and downtime. A monitoring has been added to this proposal for this reason. This will allow the
engineers at Chicago office to monitor the health of the networking equipment at the Chicago
office and Chicago colocation.
Network Monitoring
diagnose network issues before any outages occur. The GUI is very intuitive.
Server Monitoring
The server monitoring solution we will be implementing is PRTG Network Monitoring. This
solution is also web based, installed on Windows Server 20008. This will allow the enterprise to
monitor all servers at every location and not just at Toronto. This will monitor bandwidth usage,
CPU usage, Ping times, disk space, and uptime/downtime. There will be an email that will be
sent out with a report of the top 100 instance of what was stated above. This will allow Chicago
engineers to monitor the health of the Servers at the Chicago Office and Chicago Colocation:

New York Office
Logical diagram
The New York Office is supporting 20 traders and trade strategist. The office has a dual point-to-
point 100Mbps connection from both JP and KQ Telco and terminates in either NY-OFF-INT1
or NY-OFF-INT2. This will give traders or trade strategist to do any research that might be
required of them quickly. Our internal WAN has two connections that either terminates in NY-
OFF-CR1 or NY-OFF-CR2. There is a dual direct point-to-point 1Gbps connection between the
New York Office and the New York Solsticix. Lastly, there is a dual 100Mbps MPLS connection
between the New York Office and the Toronto Headquarters. The routers that terminate all of the
connections to the New York Office are Cisco ASR 1004 and Internet traffic is firewalled by
Cisco ASA 5585. The Cisco Nexus 3548 switches are used to forward traffic to the users.

67
IP Address Scheme
For each Internet link we have been provided with a 100.1.4.0 /24 allocation from JP Telco and
from KQ Telco we have been provided with an 88.1.4.0 /24 allocation. As we can see from
figure IP.8.2, we have allocated the IP addresses that were given to us on the routers and firewall
interfaces. The firewalls will NAT/PAT the internal private addresses out to the Internet. We
decided to not use the full /24 allocation inside since we have an MPLS connection with the
Toronto office, this will allow us to use private addressing to communicate directly with that
office through that MPLS over Ethernet.
The IP Address will be in the range of 10.4.1.0 /24 for the networking equipment. This has been
broken down into /30 for each link. We have reserved the 10.4.20.0/20 for DHCP. This will be
dynamically assigned to devices that will connect to this private network, which does not require
static IPs. The 10.4.32.0/20 block has been reserved for all servers. The static IP for servers will
be pulled from this allocation.

Physical layout
The circled red T is the location of the Telecom room for the New York Office. This is a shared
space between all tenants on the floor. I will make the assumption that all network drops and
connections will terminate in the Telecom room. Since we are using a shared it is important to
remember physical security. Physical security of our hardware is very prevalent in this situation,
subsequently we can’t control who enters into our telecom room (shared space). We need to lock
all our equipment up and make sure all configurations that are done on the equipment are
encrypted correctly. Not knowing what the space looks like or how much is allocated to us, it
might be wise to consider fencing in our equipment in our equipment for that added layer of
security.

70
Physical diagram
At the New York Office there is a telecom room that is shared with the other tenants on the floor.
This room will house the hardware that we will be using to connect Chicago Office to the
Internet and the internal WAN. All Internet and internal WAN connections will terminate into
one of four Cisco ASR 1004 Routers. All internet traffic will be routed through one of two Cisco
ASA 5585 Firewalls. All traffic will be sent to one of two Cisco Nexus 3548 Switches. An
assumption can be made that all user workstations, VoIP phones and Access Points are
terminated in the telecom closet. CAT 6 cabling will terminate in the Nexus 3548 using a GLC-T
Compatible 1000Base-T Copper SFP. The PDU is attached vertically to accommodate for the
spacing on the rack. The routers that are being used are designed for High Performance routing
which ensures QoS (Quality of Service), high availability and high bandwidth speeds. The
switches that are being used are low latency switches that will decrease the delay.

71
Power Consumption
There will be one Eaton 9390IT will be present for the New York location. The UPS will be able
to cover any power is to go down for 30 minutes. This UPS is designed to support up to 36,000
watts for 30 minutes. It is its own unit that stands on its own.

Servers
The rest of the servers that will be at this location will be the HP ProLiant 620c. There will be 8
of these blades at this location. The specifications for the server are as follows: 64GB RAM, 2 X
10-core Intel Xeon processor 2.00GHz. The RAM is upgradeable to 1TB. Some the services will
be on VMs, however any of the important services that retrieve information will be running on
the hardware and not through a virtual machine.
The development environment will be hosted at the Toronto datacenter. The developers will be
able to connect to any of the servers through the MPLS connection and make changes or add
services to their VMs from there. This removes the need for development boxes on-site at the
New York office.
Historian Database
The Historian Database will be on a completely different server. Since we need to be able to
store 50TB of data, which will be updated every day. We decided to go with a SAN solution for

72
this. This will allow us to store this data plus be able to back this up since we will be using Raid
5, everything from the disks on the main SAN will be backed up on 3 copies of disks. If one of
the drives fail no data will be lost, this also allows the engineer to be able to switch out the drive
without having to worry about turning off the SAN since the drives are hot swappable. This will
be at both the New York office and Chicago Office.
The SAN solution we are going with is the HP MSA 2040 SAN Dual Controller SFF Storage
with the MSA 2040 LFF disk Enclosure expansion. This will allow up to 288 TB of space. This
SAN is connected via Fiber to a HP ProLiant DL560 Gen8 Server.
Monitoring
and downtime. A monitoring has been added to this proposal for this reason. This will allow the
engineers at New York office to monitor the health of the networking equipment at the New
York office and New York colocation.
Network Monitoring
diagnose network issues before any outages occur. The GUI is very intuitive.
Server Monitoring
The server monitoring solution we will be implementing is PRTG Network Monitoring. This
solution is also web based, installed on Windows Server 20008. This will monitor bandwidth
usage, CPU usage, Ping times, disk space, and uptime/downtime. There will be an email that will
be sent out with a report of the top 100 instance of what was stated above. This will allow New
York engineers to monitor the health of the Servers at the New York Office and New York
Colocation:

For the Chicago Solsticix location low latency is vital. The Cisco ASR 1004 routers and Cisco
Nexus 3548 will provide us with the lowest latency possible. All connections will be terminated
in either CHI-SOL-CR1 or CHI-SOL-CR2. We will be using JP and KQ Telco for our
connections from Chicago Office, MYSE, MASDAQ, and Toronto Headquarters. We will also
be using Lyric A and Lyric B for our Market Data connection. Chicago Office has a dual direct
point-to-point 1Gbps connection to Chicago Solsticix, each connection will be provided by either
JP or KQ Telco and will be terminated in opposite routers for redundancy. MYSE and
MASDAQ will connect to Chicago Solsticix via a dual 1Gbps connection provided by both JP
and KQ Telco. Each pair of connections will terminate into opposite routers for redundancy.
Lastly, there is one 100Mbps MPLS connection to Toronto for precautionary measure if
something should happen to our 1Gbps connections from Chicago office.

Security Policy
We have selected two different methods of making sure that our network is secure. These
methods are going to work in conjunction with our DMZ. All inbound traffic from the Internet is
sent through one of four Cisco ASA 5585 Firewalls. For Intrusion Detection Systems, Intrusion
Prevention systems and email filtering we will be using Websense Security Gateway. All of
these put together will work to stop any potential attacker that is trying to get into our network.

Equipment Maintenance/Replacement Strategy
Throughout this network that has been designed, the equipment that has been chosen is made
readily available. Since DaFun is a company that’s needs a high available network all equipment
needs to be replaced within hours rather than days. Cisco provides an extended warranty called
Cisco SMARTNet Premium. The features of this warranty are as follows:
 software updates and upgrades
 advance hardware replacement
 technical support
 support 24 hours a day/7days a week
 Response time in 4 hours
HP provides an extended warranty that is included in the price of the server. HP offers the 3/3/3
warranty, which features three years of parts, 3 years of labor and three years of on-site support.
HP also has additional features such as 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week support and four hour
replacement of part. Lastly Eaton UPS has the following features for their warranties:
 Parts and Labor for Electronics
 7x24 On-Site Corrective Maintenance
 2-Hour Response
 7x24 UPS Preventive Maintenance Visit (2 per year)
 Battery Preventive Maintenance Visit (2 per year)
 eNotify Remote Monitoring Service

93
Implementation Plan
To implement this plan, we would do the following.
 Secure all building space and necessary connections that will be needed.
 We must deploy multiple specialized teams at each location. Engineers specialized in
Servers, SANS, and Routing & Switching would be part of these specialized teams. It
will require about 40 to 70 hours to implement and install the equipment, however some
locations might require more time.
 The equipment and software will be installed to proposal and industry standards.
 Everything will be documented, this includes all equipment, and cables will be labeled
properly. This would help future troubleshooting.
 Configure and Test equipment.
