Detailed Design Development. An implementation-ready detailed design for the Data Center Nexus will be developed for the Authorized Channel. The detailed design does not include configurations for any third party applications. • Conduct telephone interviews with designated contact of the Authorized Channel covering the design of the Data Center. • Create and provide the Detailed Design document including performing some or all of the following: − Design fabric interconnect for Nexus: define Nexus design and deployment model; define IP addressing scheme to accommodate Nexus switches; suggest Local Area Network/Wide Area Network (LAN/WAN) configuration to accommodate applications; suggest leading practices and give sample config Quality of Service (QoS) configuration for LAN/WAN; define network services; and provide Internetwork Operating System recommendations: − Gather and analyze the following information: security and scheduling parameters; backup/disaster recovery requirements; video, data, or groupware integration requirements for Cisco applications only; and provide relevant ▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ links to Authorized Channel. • Review the Detailed Design with Authorized Channel for comment and approval before it is formally completed and released as required to enable Cisco to understand End User’s business and technical requirements for the network • Define IP addressing for network devices. • Provide physical and logical network schematics for existing network where applicable. • Provide complete documentation and/or information for the following: − completed Pre-requisite Template for the Data Center. − security policy, requirements and features already deployed in the End User’s current network; − documentation that defines the current network topology, including access, distribution, and core layers, types of switches and routers in each layer, IP addressing and sub-netting for each layer, and features/services that have been enabled on the network; and − documentation that defines the existing application flows. Authorized Channel data networking configurations for core routing protocols, LAN/WAN connectivity, QoS and Access Control Lists (ACL). • Review the Detailed Design with Cisco, providing comment and approval before it is formally completed and released. Develop a Network Implementation Plan (NIP) that identifies the processes and the Cisco Product necessary to implement and operate the Data Center solution. The NIP is a guide for the Authorized Channel’s implementation engineer to follow. It contains node and site specific installation requirement information and records the basic tests and actions for implementation. It also provides references to product documentation, such as administration guides and technical notes. • Create and provide a Network Implementation Plan. The NIP document provides the information necessary for the Authorized Channel to carry out the implementation of the equipment at the End User location and to verify basic operation and ready for service configuration. Ready-for- service means that the network, or a subset of it, is functioning as per the specifications documented in the NIP. • Review the Network Implementation Plan with Authorized Channel for comment and approval before it is formally completed and released. • Ensure that Authorized Channel key networking personnel are available to participate in telephone interview sessions • Provide End User building layout, including the floor plan, cabling and power location for applicable site. • Provide and verify interface specifications and requirements. For example, cabling standards and specifications for interconnect of Cisco and End User equipment. • Provide information on distance and interference limitations of interface cables to be used at installation. • Provide Cisco with the test plan and interconnect process required by any third parties including but not limited to in country carrier/telco prior to NIP completion. • Provide Cisco with required documentation which may include the following: a). site-specific implementation requirements; b). site contacts, location and considerations; c). site specific installation requirements; and d). site specific information from bill of materials. • Review the Network Implementation Plan with Cisco, providing comment and approval before it is formally completed and released.
