Project Overview Fairfax Infrastructure Upgrades, Phase 2 John Hanks
Project Goals • Increase size of uplink pipes • Finish upgrade of residence halls to switched 10Mbs to per pillow (‘dorm’) • Upgrade office and classroom ports to switched 10/100 (‘office’) • Add more ports in public areas
Description • Actually 4 independent projects • Dorm upgrades • Enterprise Hall upgrades • Johnson Center/Fenwick • Robinson Hall Upgrades FOR MORE INFO... For updated project plan information, see http://netinfo.gmu.edu/FairfaxUpgrade
‘Dorm’ Upgrades • Upgrade software on existing units • Load 4.0 boot and run code • Reconfigure management network • Equipment replacement in 3 areas • Patriots Village - 3 & 9 • Commonwealth and Dominion • Student Apartments • Each independent ‘mini project’
‘Office’ Upgrades • Common ‘Master’ Plan for All Three • Announce Upgrades starting • Meet with technical contacts • Open meeting with all building occupants • Define schedule for implementation • Install equipment • Management would prefer upgrading during normal working hours
‘Office’ Upgrades – By building: • Announce Upgrades • Now you know… • Meet with technical contacts • Define all users in building • Identify any special needs • Review building upgrade plan • Set tentative dates for installation
‘Office’ Upgrades – By building: • Open meeting with all occupants • Confirm all users in building • Review identified special needs • Review building upgrade plan • Select dates for installation • Define Schedule for Implementation • Define and post final Implementation Schedule • Install Equipment • Post reminders week before • Install equipment
Building Overview - Enterprise • Enterprise Hall • Total of three networks • Backbone • SOM • Classroom • Each network already properly defined • No IP changes • Available rack space in TSE • Can do floor by floor
Building Overview – JC/Fenwick • Johnson Center & Fenwick Library • Total of six networks Backbone Admissions Library AIL Johnson Labs S&T I Labs • Each network already properly defined • No IP changes • Available rack space in TSE • Can do floor by floor (or closet by closet)
Building Overview - Robinson • Robinson Hall • Total of three networks • Backbone • Robinson Labs • DoIIIT • Backbone network ‘a real mess’ • Almost all IPs must change (‘.12-.15) • Netmask and router must change (‘.12.1) • No rack space available in TSEs • Robinson A - must do entire building at once • Robinson B - Slightly more flexible • Harris Theatre - equipment change can wait
Building Specifics - Robinson • Three Phase Backbone Transition • Sweep through building changing IPs • Convert as many devices as possible to DHCP • Move all statics to ‘.14 (B) and ‘.15(A) networks • UCIS & department keep static lists • Change Backbone Address • Change address on router and DHCP server • Change netmask and router on static list • Upgrade closet equipment • Robinson A – all floors out until upgraded • Robinson B – each floor will work until upgraded • Harris Theatre – will work until upgraded
Robinson Upgrade Plan – tentative • Change address on router • Change DHCP server • Start changing netmask & router on static addresses from list Robinson B, Harris, Robinson A • At same time, start upgrading equipment by closet • 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A • 3B, 4B, 2B, 1B • Harris
Phase 2 ‘Office’ Summary • Happening this Summer • Schedule to be determined by users • Enterprise, Johnson, Fenwick • No address changes required • Schedule flexible to closet level • Robinson Hall • IP information must change • Must complete all once started • Order of upgrades pretty much fixed
