DLX Network Audit

What We Do

Verify the Network Design
The network audit will compare the design of your network with published frameworks and manufacturers reference designs. 

Device Configuration
The configuration of you network devices will be evaluated and tested for best practice configuration and standards compliance.

Performance
Performance, or the lack of it, is a common reason for performing network audits.  We will place sensors on your network and gather data to enable us to analyze the performance of you network.  This data will allow us to make informed decisions when making recommendations for future design options.

Voice and interactive Media Readiness Assessment
We can verify if your network is ready for voice, video or any other applications you may be planning to deploy.   
recommendations
Any recommendations will be clearly explained and backed up with empirical data and references to published frameworks and reference designs.   

Business benefits of audit

Visualisation
Understand the state, capacity and condition of the current network.

Identify Risks
Our network audit goes beyond identifying the obvious risks associated with security and verifies that the network is scalable, modular, capable of integrating new features and providing services as your business requirements dictate.

More Accurate Forecasting
Without the right tools, it’s hard to work out how the network is performing now, and even harder to predict what is required tomorrow  A network audit gives you the state of the network as it is today and provides you with a clear, modular framework of what needs to be done and what will be required in the future.

Deliverables

Detailed Report of Findings
The network audit report will detail the status of the network as it is today.  This is a technical document covering both design aspects and configuration level detail.
detailed remedial actions
The report will detail any remedial actions at design and device level where appropriate.  This includes device hardening, IOS configuration code and screenshots.

Executive Overview
A comprehensive executive overview is included as to describe the opportunity or problem, recommendations and business impact.

Network Diagrams
The audit report will include clear diagrams of key physical and logical elements of the current network and any proposed changes.
report neutrality
The network audit report is written from a neutral point of view and includes references to all the standards and frameworks used.  This gives you full freedom in choosing who will implement the changes in the report.

Audit Scope

Tailored Audit Scope
The scope of the audit can be tailored from a small area of concern to a full network wide assessment.
