USC Phase 1 Plan (Summer 1997)
Replace collector routers with collector switch hubs.
Put redundant Cisco 7500 at UCC to collect nets from collector PHE, UCC, BRI and PSD switch hubs (UCS acquires PSD, UCC and PHE hubs in place).
Install switch hub at BRI (Business has already acquired this month).
Install switch hub at PSD (UCS acquire).
Install Cisco 7200 in PSD to collect “off campus” sites.
Configure VLANs in switch net to collect buildings as they are configured today. Then put them on new router as is.
Do same thing at HSC as UPC in the two collector sites there.
- Redundant Cisco 7500 to collect networks from two switches.
- Run HSSI interface to UPC, run backup 10 Mb/s link to UPC.
- If ‘dark fiber’ is available run several 100 Mb/s FDX links to UPC.
Upgrade remaining public user facilities with switched 10Mbps network and multiple 100 Mb/s feeds (SAL and part of KOH).
