Kamehameha Institute is an organization that provides educational offerings to nontraditional students.

The organization has different offerings depending on the group:

  • Kamehameha Branded – This offering focuses on the general public and provides services directly to its student.
  • Co-Branded – This offering provides the same services as the Kamehameha Branded; however, they are resold by a third party and labeled as “…. Kamehameha Strong”
  • White Label – While the service offering is the same, these services are labeled solely with the third parties’ information.

Due to the security and regulatory requirements as well as the concern of corporate espionage, many security concerns must be addressed.

You have been tasked to design a network infrastructure for three facilities located in Honolulu, Hilo, and Lihue. The design is to be based on the following:

  • There is constant connection between the three locations, carrying at least 75 Mbps of data.
  • Each facility has three floors, rectangular with dimensions of 250 feet by 400 feet.
  • There needs to be 150 network connections on the first and second floor of each building. The data center in each building is located on the third floor and requires 75 network connections. Additionally, the Honolulu location will require additional network connections for failover.
  • The primary data center is located at the Hilo location.
  • A failover data center is located at the Lihue facility.
  • Protection from intrusions should be detailed.
  • The primary web servers (including primary application and primary database servers) are located at the Lihue location.
  • Redundant database servers are located at the Hilo location.
  • All servers must have redundancy.
  • A plan to verify security and failover measures will be required.
