Network Upgrade

January 19th, 2009

As many of you know we’ve been planning an upgrade of the Brisbane network for some time now, well… it’s finally happened! During a single outage window on January 14′th we replaced many of our old access switches with new Gigabit Cisco WS-C3750G-24TS-S switches. In addition we also moved away from our historic collapsed-core architecture with the implementation of a distribution-layer WS-C3750G-24TS-E enhanced switch stack.

The new architecture increases performance to our VPS Hosting (VPS) and Dedicated Server farm with multi-gigabit connectivity into the network core and high levels of redundancy due to redundant fibre etherchannel links between access, distribution & core layers. The new architecture also allows us to keep inter-vlan traffic away from the core and allows this traffic to be routed at the distribution layer instead.

In addition we’ve also implemented Cisco proprietary EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) within the network which will speed up network convergence and will make more intelligent routing decisions. We also expect this recent upgrade will correct an error that has been causing inaccuracies in the traffic usage statistics system.
