Hi Guys, from "the art of network architecture:Business driven design (chaptert 1 ) i can see the following :
You will want to evaluate the current state of the network. Depending on how familiar you are already with the environment, this might be as exhaustive as a complete assessment, or it might simply entail sitting back and taking a bird’s-eye view of the network. You may already have a good idea of which portions of the network will need changing; if so, concentrate on those. But don’t forget to gather information about all parts of the network that might be affected by a changing design or a new application.
In your evaluation, be sure to include three things:
Profile of the current network
Profile of the current support staff
Profile of the current network management, monitoring, and support methods
It obviously makes sense to look at the network, but you might be wondering why you should bother to examine support staff and the network monitoring. The answer is that these may have an impact on the new network design. You may need to tailor network design to the company’s ability to support it. You may need to recommend changes or additions to the current staff, or training for them. More than likely you will need to recommend changes or additions to the network management tools or processes. People have been trying to perfect network management for as long as there have been networks, yet there is almost always room for improvement.
So i would say A,C.Happy to have any feedback.
