5 Preparing Your LAN Infrastructure for the Neoview
Platform
This section provides guidelines for preparing your LAN infrastructure for the Neoview platform.
Overview
A pair of HP ProCurve 2848 switches tie together both the internal and external LAN networks.
The segments attach to the dedicated service LAN, your enterprise query LAN, the data load
and extract LAN, and the HP Instant Support Enterprise Edition (ISEE) solution LAN. There are
a total of seven or eight Gigabit (Gb) Ethernet links from the customer-provided network to the
Neoview platform. Those Ethernet links are detailed below.
Dedicated Service LAN
The dedicated service LAN for the Neoview platform runs over a private,100 Mb LAN. The
Neoview Loader, segments, and system console connect to the dedicated service LAN.
ISEE Access
NOTE: The Neoview platform account representative must place a separate order of the ISEE
VPN router with the assistance of the ISEE team.
The ISEE call-out for system console access connects to your enterprise Internet access using a
LAN (Gigabit Ethernet).
The HP ISEE call-in access is provided using the hpVPN Cisco 831 router, which in turn connects
to your customer Internet access using a LAN (Gigabit Ethernet). There is one Gigabit (Gb) link
connected from the customer Internet access to each hpVPN Cisco 831 router. (The default is a
single router.)
Enterprise Queries and Responses
Queries and responses run over your enterprise LAN (Gigabit Ethernet). There are two Gb
Ethernet links, one to each HP ProCurve 2848 switch.
Data Feed From the Enterprise
Upload from the enterprise to the parallel loader runs over the data feed from the enterprise
LAN (Gigabit Ethernet). There are two Gb Ethernet links, one to each HP ProCurve 2848 switch.
Data Loading and Extracting
Load and extract traffic between the loader and the segments is isolated on a private LAN (Gigabit
Ethernet):
