Network audit and discovery
We’ve undertaken many network audits over the years, often as the start of a larger piece of work like a migration or a new network design. There are a number of reasons that clients may need an audit:
Outdated inventories and documentation
Due diligence prior to mergers and acquisitions
Major upgrades
Fault and incident investigation
Standards compliance
Network documentation and inventory can get out of date quickly. Our expert engineers know what data is needed for effective documentation, particularly around standards compliance. And thorough analysis and documentation after an acquisition or a meger is a must in order to plan rationalisation and efficiency gains.
An audit may cover a number of areas:
Network bottlenecks
Loop-free topologies and technologies
Security assessment
Traffic segregation
Redundancy and resilience
Out-of-band access
Traffic monitoring
Latency and QoS
IPv6 readyness
Routing security and policy
BGP peering and route optimisation
