1.1.3 Case Study 3- [CFA (Country Fire Authority) Agile Responsive Technology] This Australian organization also deployed the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), VMware, and NetApp to scale Infrastructure in their data center. [10] In addition to this, Cisco Nexus 1000v series switch was added to provide visibility of virtual machines at the virtual access layer. This helped to improve the virtualization intelligence of the network. This platform helped to improve scalability, which was the primary necessity of the organization. [10] The Cisco UCS manager at the organization is mostly pleased because of the ‘single pane’ where you can access the servers and therefore ease manageability. Virtualization now seems an inevitable move for organizations that want to remain at top notch. With its great benefits it is unavoidable. It is because of this that I focus my project on Layer 2 domain expansion by VXLAN Overlay Technology. 1.2 VXLAN [Overlay Technology] The case studies are based on VXLAN basic idea and its benefits. Originally VXLAN had been invented for the big benefit where in VLAN, user cannot have more than thousand VLANs’ in network per device but now, we can get 16 million VXLAN configuration possible on single virtual switch environment using combined approach of Cisco and VMware products. [13] 1.3 Literature Reviews Various research papers and existing published patterns on VXLAN documents helped in selecting this topic and two of them are described in the below

The hospital’s administrative network consists of Apple iMACS and thin computers that use 1000Base T with CAT 6 cables. All work stations belonging to Executive Management has Apple iMAC computers with 24” monitors, 2.4 GHz speed, 2 GB RAM, and a 500 MB hard drive. Human Resources, OPNS, and the Finance Senior Managers have Apple iMACS with 20” monitors, 2 GHz speed, and a 350 MB hard drive. All of the systems have OS virtualization and use the MAC Operating System X, Leopard, and Windows XP. OS virtualization allows separate, isolated virtual environments to be used on a single server. The MAC Operating System X is a UNIX system that is both simple and powerful. Leopard further enhanced the system by making it faster and more reliable. Windows XP is a product of Microsoft but it is able to be installed on any MAC using a native version of Microsoft Office. This way users are able to create documents using MS Word, make presentations using PowerPoint, and
4. Identify the network protocols that are used in the protocols that are in the local are network at your shall or workplace. Why were these protocols chosen for your network? Was IPX ever implemented in your local area network? Why? if your network is using IP, what address class(es) is being used? Why? see if you can find out if and how class D and class E addresses are used in your network.
In the Future Corporation LAN, I have decided to some Virtual Area LAN Network (VLAN) for better performance, easier administration, less cost, and better security. There will be two VLANs for each department, total will be 26 VLANs. The first VLAN in each department will be only for the employees' department, and the second VLAN will be for the guests. I have decided to use static VLANs, so every port will be configured to be belong to a VLAN. I have selected static VLANs instead
VMware’s core competencies are self-service; encapsulation and isolation between applications; rock solid data protection; simple and easy. The challenge for enterprise IT will be to meet these expectations in the corporate environment while maintaining corporate policy, delivering on SLAs and flexible delivery at low cost. And to do so at the appropriate user and application granularity, all the while bridging to the world of Windows applications and desktops.

Being part of the PSO unit of VMWare means that I will be working alongside equally motivated and experienced professionals to help VMWare customers ensure the success. Whether they are just stating out or need assistance with their established organisation, VMWare is a reliable source for providing support, solutions and infrastructure. The reputation of VMWare is cemented by the array of services that are provided, such as Business, Technology or Industry Solutions, Data Centres and Cloud Computing services. Furthermore, as stated in the informational videos on the VMWare channel, customers are assured that they are in the hands of competent and highly experienced architects, consultants and TAMs(Technical Account Managers).
VLANs or Virtual Local Area Networks are logical local area networks that extend beyond the traditional LAN architecture. Because a VLAN is a logical entity, creating and configuring a VLAN is done completely in software. The advantages to using this type of LAN include but are not limited to the ability to conserve the network resources, to bridge geographical drawbacks, and to better manage the movement of personnel and equipment. To understand the need for VLANs you must first understand the Local Area Network (LAN). The definition of a LAN started as a group of computers that were connected in the same area, but today’s LAN is defined as a single broadcast domain. This is explained easily by looking at a large organization where each department would be on a separate LAN found behind a router or switch. With today’s expanding networks it has become important for these
VLANs provide high network security. Sniffing the network is difficult. We can control whenever resource to allow.

Despite there being several issues to be resolved alongside the planned expansion and growth of the XUMUC network, the benefits of such changes will be seen immediately by all networked users through the removal of bandwidth and performance issues. Furthermore, XUMUC will at last be in possession of an Enterprise grade network which can assist with their strategic business objectives and requirements.
As we all know virtualization is the requirement of future. We have evolved from the age of traditional environment to virtual environment.We have grown accustomed to almost all things virtual from virtual memory to virtual networks to virtual storage.The most widely leveraged benefit of virtualization technology is server consolidation, enabling one server to take on the workloads of multiple servers. For example, by consolidating a branch office’s print server, fax server, exchange server, and web server on a single windows server, businesses reduce the costs of hardware, maintenance, and staffing.
VMware provides the vSphere application and similarly Microsoft provides Hyper-V application for the purpose of virtualization. Most of the major datacenter in the world use the VMware as their solution for virtualization. VMware dominates the server virtualization market in world due to its innovations, strategic partnerships and rock-solid products [2]. We shall be using VMware products to virtualize the hypothetical organization. The reasons for choosing VMware [3] are:
In order to control virtual networks spanning multiple infrastructure domains, the virtual networks must be identified by a virtual network ID. Additionally the virtual links are also needed to be identified which can be done by using virtual link ID. One of the solution would consist of simply mapping the virtual link ID to whatever data link layer specific tag is in use. A number of available link virtualization techniques such as ATM, Ethernet VLAN could be used for this purpose. This Virtual link ID can be used for both virtual link identifier and a tag for data forwarding.
All data is stored in a large sized hard disk and users of VAXclusters have access to this storage of data for getting benefits. VAXclusters is available for users all the time and it is easy to extend this system as it is made in such a manner to have easy installations of systems and programs for better performance. Professionals are available and working on VAXclusters for increasing the scope of working and providing more areas for users. Much advancement have made in old models so that new VAXclusters could
