I've recently taken over the IT for a local church and it's not setup quite right for what they want to accomplish. I've created a network diagram of what I'm proposing for their new/upgraded network (see attachment) but, I have a couple of questions or ideas that I would like advice.
Current Hardware.
1 ~ Windows Server 2008 (Only using Active Directory & File Storage)
2 ~ Windows Server 2003 (Old Server but still running Quickbooks)
3 ~ 24 port Switch
4 ~ Linksys Wireless Router (Handling DHCP)
5 ~ Modem provided by local ISP
You'll see from the diagram that we're planning on adding a few devices.
Now to my Question(s)
1 ~ The Church wants to keep the wifi connection open for the congregation to have the ability to connect their virtual bibles and other common sites. But, since there are kids and teenagers that use the connection to jump on the internet for everything from Facebook to Wikipedia they also want to be able to restrict certain sites. My initial plan was to just restrict access @ the router to whatever sites they deem not safe or okay.
2 ~ Another thought I have is splitting the network into two networks. The first, is "business" side of the network with all of the church computers. The second the "open" wireless network where the congregation can connect.
Would I use two wireless routers to achieve the splitting of the network ? How?
Is filtering the Safe/UnSafe sites best handled @ the router?
How well would setting the whole thing up as an Intranet work as an option?
Thanks for any help/advice.
