I will be finishing up our Rack install this weekend and will be throwing the rest of our network inside our shiny 90s era racks.
Does anyone have any tips/speed tricks to make the rest of the network go in smoothly? IE an order of operations. I already have our 2 dell r900 servers in there that host our DCs and all of our other etc servers.
The things that need to go inside still are:
Dual Wan TPLink Router
3 HP Procurve 48 port switches
1 CTC Router for our VoiP solution
1 Netgear swtich for our VoiP solution
1 linksys router (AP)
2 UPS
1 Tower Server (file share)
3 48 Port Patch panels
I want to reduce downtown, but most importantly I need to keep up our servers almost at all times since we host an external facing web app that clients log into 24/7.
