Windows Server Proposal

The design and implementation of a businesses’ network enterprise can play a major role in the success of that business. This proposal will provide a solution for the Worldwide Advertising Inc. Windows network infrastructure. This proposal will include a solution for WAI’s core IT services, such as DNS and DHCP. In addition we will provide a solution for application services, active directory and file and print sharing. This proposal will also address scheduling and manpower needed for the Windows network infrastructure to run efficiently and successfully now and for the next 2 to 3 years. Deployment and Server Edition. Windows Server 2012 with Hyper-V will be deployed on all servers throughout the enterprise. Hyper-V will support WAI’s workload, with its expanded support for host processors and memory. In addition Hyper-V will allow WAI to utilize existing servers while still taking advantage of new hardware technology for virtualization now and in the future. Server Core will be installed on all servers for reliability and security. There will be a total of 10 servers for the WAI’s internal network. Windows Server 2012 will allow WAI to manage its entire Windows network infrastructure as a single server in its Los Angeles office, with four servers residing at the New York office. All servers and operating systems will be installed using Windows Deployment Services (WDS). This will allow the deployment of images for WAI’s mixed environment. Multicasting will be used to transmit the images and data and we will create the necessary images using the Image Capture Wizard. This will allow driver packages to be added to the servers and configured to be deployed with the client computers and install image. DNS and DHCP. For this implementation, we will create a hybrid DHCP infrastructure. There will be a main DHCP server and a backup at the Los Angeles office and relay agents at the New York Office. This will minimize the network traffic between
