Ok! So my friend called me and asked me to come over to his Inn and price him on redoing
his Inn networking. As I was looking at his equipment I noticed that 1. he using walmart
routers and switches - a big issue with me, 2. the WiFi to the guess is on the same network
as business side, An there no IP isolation setup. Meaning that anyone can connect and see
what on what. WHY do people do this? This can be a huge security risk not to the guess but
to the business side too. So I told my friend he need a new network installed. He not too happy
but the risk he can't afford to have on him.
Plane: A - my way
1.) Run green cat5e to all offices to a patch panel.
2.) Run blue cat5e to five point of the Inn to five new Ubiquiti nodes
3.) Use a Dell Dual Core 3gig ram W/3 network cards running IPFIRE, Green
zone business, Blue Zone WiFi Guess with IP Isolation. Red Zone for Internet firewall.
4.) have two switches one 24 cisco green zone, and one 8 port cisco blue zone.
5.) install two wired network green zone laser printers, and two receipt printers.
6.) run new dell office computer with windows 7 (Buy Request) and have
domain user login protocols for security.
Plane: B - would be his way. Buy Walmart gear. aka be cheap.
1. keep the old wireing
2. just get new walmart WiFi routers
3. upgrade the dell computer with xp to win 7.
4. use his old inkjet printers.
Why would he want his way is be-on-me. What do you think on my plan?
