Deployment and Configuration Guideline
Hardware Installation:
- Ensure that the ASR1001-2.5G-SECK9 router is properly powered and connected to the network.
- Install the router in a secure location with proper ventilation and temperature control.
Initial Configuration:
- Connect to the router via the console port or through Telnet/SSH.
- Configure the basic network settings such as IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
- Set the hostname and enable password for the router.
Security Configuration:
- Configure the firewall and access control lists to secure the network.
- Enable SSH or Telnet for remote access.
- Configure user accounts and authentication methods.
Network Services Configuration:
- Configure routing protocols such as OSPF, BGP, or EIGRP.
- Configure Quality of Service (QoS) policies to prioritize traffic.
- Enable virtual private network (VPN) services such as IPSec or SSL.
High Availability Configuration:
- Configure redundancy features such as Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) or Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
- Configure automatic failover mechanisms such as Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) or EtherChannel.
Monitoring and Maintenance:
- Configure SNMP for network monitoring and management.
- Schedule regular backups of the router configuration.
- Implement a maintenance schedule to ensure that the router stays updated and secure.
Testing and Validation:
- Test the router configuration and services to ensure that they are working as expected.
- Validate the security settings and perform regular vulnerability assessments.
- Monitor the network performance to ensure that it meets the required SLAs.
Final Deployment:
- Once the router is configured and tested, it can be deployed in the production network.
- Update the network documentation with the new configuration details and IP addresses.
- Provide training to the network administrator and support team on how to manage and troubleshoot the router.
