In recent years, with the promotion and use of smart cards, will be a number of management functions and community service, certification integrated campus, “Card” is gaining in popularity in colleges and universities. University Campus Card Network Solutions Digital wave in the world under the influence of Digital Campus colleges and universities are wide attention, colleges and universities across the country by the China Education and Research Network (CERNET) to promote the building of strong, are from different perspectives Digital Campus contact with the subject. In recent years, with the promotion and use of smart cards, will be a number of management functions and community service, certification integrated campus, “Card” is gaining in popularity in colleges and universities. Campus “One Card” to the smart card as the information carrier, a combination of micro-electronics Technology , Microcontroller technology, computer network technology and database technology, and many other high-tech, it has the electronic identification and electronic purse functions, replacing the daily needs of school teachers in the traditional work permit, student card, library card, and cash-related transactions with canteens Fanka (vouchers), medical certificate, the machine cards, tickets, etc., to teach, learn, test, evaluation, housing and comprehensive digital and network, and truly “one card in hand, anywhere on campus.” Network platform in the bottom of campus card system is the cornerstone of campus card, Ruijie company has 7 years service Education Information Experience in building, through in-depth analysis and study, designed with high stability and high security features of the card network platform to support the operation of campus card One, needs analysis Underlying network infrastructure is the cornerstone of successful implementation of campus card. Can not choose the right network infrastructure will lead to the following questions: system performance degradation, the high failure rate, a large number of security problems and cumbersome maintenance and management issues, which is unacceptable for users. In addition, if there is no proper network design, network infrastructure will be difficult to meet the rapid development of the campus card network expansion and upgrade capability. “Campus Card” system involves the use of funds, settlement and with the banking system, networking, and related to the general staff and students of teaching, learning and living normal, so the stability and security is a very important design aspects. Security requirements Although Campus Network Already has a considerable network of security measures to ensure the “Campus Card” system to prevent illegal users through the campus network intrusion, should be independent and build “Campus Card” network so that the “Campus Card” relatively closed network, not with external system, especially the Internet directly connected, that is, building “Campus Card” special network, campus network and the “Campus Card” special network of logical isolation. If for business needs, must be in the campus network and the “Campus Card” communication between private network, you can use IPSec tunnel mode, on the campus network and the “Campus Card” private network used for data exchange between encryption and the prevention of “Campus Card” malicious data being stolen, and the campus network and the “Campus Card” special network for critical Server Strict access control policy to prohibit non-authorized users access to these important servers, to protect the “Park Card” special network data security. , Stability of the demand School campus card carries a lot of business development, network stability and reliability becomes more important?? Network does not matter lightly off the history of several hours have passed. On the other hand, in the application of the rich, the network has become very harsh environment, security attacks increases exponentially, but the knowledge required is weakening, a variety of attack tools on the network can be picked up at random. It also Network equipment The proliferation of network attacks or virus in the context of stability and reliability challenges. Construction of campus card network, therefore first need to have a stable network equipment itself, the design, followed by the network architecture should ensure multi-link equipment redundancy, in the end link between the multi-campus not only to the traditional links redundant backup link also needs to access different forms of preparedness.

Scalability Scalability is the biggest challenge in bandwidth management, could bandwidth management box handle multiple gigabit or 10Gb/s links with QoS rule sets? Few bandwidth management vendors have the 10G solutions. At the moment, any switches or routers could handle 10Gb/s, so what is special with bandwidth management? Because switching has very little logic management while bandwidth management got very complex logic and you can take complex software and siliconize it on ASIC chip. Most bandwidth management vendors develops its solutions based on *nix, which needs to be substantially improved from ground up in terms of performance, including SMP, NIC drivers, Network stack to better utilize the multi-core platform to avoid the locking as much as possible, you cannot expect open source stuff to scale well, do you see any instance that dummynet could work well under 400K pps load? Definitely not. For internet network service providers, it is critical to have scalable bandwidth management solutions while its uplink grows rapidly. Most bandwidth management vendors could not even handle 500Mb/s link with QoS rule sets but they advertised 1Gb/s or more. The conclusion: Make sure you test before purchase, you have to load the bandwidth management box on your live network with QoS rule sets to check if it introduces the latency, packet loss and see if its CPU usage is more than 50%. Bandwidth management philosophy Over the past few years we have seen a massive explosion in the types of traffic and applications that traverse IP networks. There are good sound reasons for this as globally we take full advantage of the technologies at hand in our every day lives – however, as can be expected this does unfortunately have some negative side effects especially on bandwidth consumption capacities and the resultant degradation. This is why bandwidth management solutions come in, so the question is how to manage bandwidth. Deep Packet Inspection Deep packet inspection (DPI) is Application-based traffic optimization, which uses the properties of each network protocol to provide the minimum bandwidth that guarantees acceptable quality. Bulk file transfer applications are given the lowest priority since they are typically non-interactive and long-lived. For example, a one way bulk interactive application such as a file download would be lowest priority, a one-way streaming media like YouTube ® may be next in priority and an interactive application such as VoIP would have the highest priority. As the network becomes heavily congested this prioritization becomes important as each application is degraded if it is not prioritized. Internet standards have anticipated that ‘differentiated services’ would be offered, where applications ‘mark’ themselves into the appropriate class based on the priority need of their packets. For example, VoIP marks itself as a high priority given its real-time bandwidth need and a file download marks itself at a lower priority. This provides priority for real-time applications and prevents larger applications from dominating the network. This method, however, is flawed when used in a consumer access application. Broadband access networks (DOCSIS, DSL) do not support ‘differentiated services’ due to technological limitations. Additionally, differentiated services lead to a fairness issue between subscribers and an incentive to ‘cheat’, causing the theft of QoS. Application writers sometimes marked their application’s packets as the highest priority and this honor system failed. Service provides have resorted to marking the traffic on behalf of the user, automatically choosing the guarantees that were needed. This application optimization delivers excellent overall quality and subscriber satisfaction. However, DPI is fundamentally flawed for Internet network services providers: To control user activity it requires many rules and DPI for application recognition. However policies based on explicitly having to identify the application are problematic as there is always going to be unidentified traffic as signatures change or worse still traffic becomes encrypted. This traffic is then thrown into an “all other ” classification and managed in a single umbrella rule. It also implies the endless maintenance and application signature upgrade cost. Multiple traffic types some good some bad having to compete for restricted bandwidth. There are many legal forms of p2p downloading as well which get restricted by these general catch all shaping rules. The protocol method fails because it doesn’t account for the one component of bandwidth management that matters most: volume. The reason that P2P protocols are considered abusive is because they are automated. What most people don’t understand is that most of the traffic generated by P2P applications is HTTP and ICMP traffic. Directory contents are exchanged with HTTP and servers are discovered with ICMP. The reason its abusive is not because of file downloads; it is abusive because the application is automated; it is generating traffic with a volume that is the equivalent of 100s of users. A protocol method that defines HTTP as a good protocol will not work as expected, because these applications increase the volume of HTTP to the point where the network’s volume of HTTP is so high that you either have congestion, or you have to limit users who are innocently surfing the web. The protocol method is a losing battle that fails to solve the problem of network congestion. The biggest problem with DPI is that it is easily defeated. The first way to defeat it is to make your protocols complicated, and to change them regularly. The P2P people do this with fervor. A way to absolutely defeat it is with encryption. How can you inspect a packet when you can’t determine the contents? The truth is, you can’t. You don’t even have to use encryption; you can just scramble your headers or use variable codes. Bandwidth management box on high speed networks don’t have the CPU capacity to be trying to decrypt thousands of packets per second. And you don’t have to be an evil genius to defeat DPI; it can happen accidentally. For Example, IPSEC traffic can’t be managed with DPI or the protocol method. P2P applications can easily launch encrypted tunnels to defeat any control attempt by upstream bandwidth management box. Per-user management Most ISPs and Universities are interested in providing fair access to bandwidth for its customers and users. The way to provide per user fairness is to manage by user. The power of per-user management is that you do not care what they’re doing. You do not have to know about every protocol ever conceived. And you do not have to restrict access to some protocols altogether, since any customer running abusive protocols will only consume their own bandwidth. You do not need to upgrade every time something changes, and you do not need to buy expensive support. Per user controls also can’t be defeated. Since you are controlling by Address or range of Addresses, tunneling, encryption, and header scrambling can not be used to get around your controls. The customer/user has no choice but to use their assigned address, so you can always identify their traffic, and can manage the volume of their traffic as a single, simple, easily manageable entity. The most productive and profitable way for service providers to generate revenue streams is to sell raw bandwidth with the highest possible efficiency. When service providers start trying to micro-manage user’s traffic they are just opening up a Pandora’s Box of problems. Large service providers can not recruit enough talent to manage these services, educate customers and deal with customers whose expectations are well beyond what the service provider can deliver. Selling raw, tiered service allows service providers to streamline their operations and to minimize the interaction with day-to-day issues with customer problems. It allows them to have easy to understand services that are easy to provide with minimal staff. It pushes the responsibility of micro-management to the end user, where it is easier to do, and where dedicated staff becomes more cost effective. There are legal concerns about providers dictating what customers can do on the internet, and even if your controls pass the legal test, there is public outcry about providers claiming to sell raw internet access and then not allowing “certain” kinds of traffic to pass. Using a per-user approach makes your controls transparent, as there is no limitation on what a customer can do, as long as they do not exceed their fair share of bandwidth. The conclusion is that while Deep Packet Inspection presentations include nifty graphs and seemingly exciting possibilities; it is only effective in streamlining small, very predictable networks. The basic concept is fundamentally flawed. The problem with large networks is not that bandwidth needs to be shifted from “bad” protocols to “good” protocols. The problem is volume. Volume must be managed in a way that maintains the strategic goals of the network administration. Almost always this can be achieved with a macro approach of allocating a fair share to each entity that uses the network. Any attempt to micro-manage large networks usually makes them worse; or at least simply results in shifting bottlenecks from [...]
Peking University campus is the largest campus networks, since 1989 to participate in “demonstration in Zhongguancun Area Networks” at the beginning, has completed 220 school buildings, office buildings, dormitories, faculty quarters of the fiber optic interconnection to provide information on nearly 60,000 cable point.

Development of information technology makes the application of computers has spread to every corner of the world. Many enterprises have to rely on IT technology to build the enterprise’s own information systems and business operations platform. IT network use has greatly enhanced the core competitiveness of enterprises so that enterprises can emerge in the information the information age. Enterprise use of communications networks to connect isolated stand-alone system, mutual communication and sharing of resources. However, computer-based information sharing and the openness of the Internet’s unique, making enterprises increasingly serious problem of information security. External security With the development of the Internet, network security event after another. In recent years, computer virus, worm attacks, spam, sensitive information leaks, etc., have an impact on the most widely security threats. For enterprise users, when faced with these threats often lead to data corruption, system abnormalities of the networks, information theft, reduces efficiency, direct or indirect economic losses are also high. Internal security Latest survey shows that companies under investigation for more than 60% of employees use the network for personal reasons. Improper use of the network, reduce productivity, hinder computer network, enterprise network resource consumption, and the introduction of viruses and spyware, or employees can make illicit leakage of business secrets through the network, thus resulting in tens of millions of dollars in losses. Between the internal network, the connection between internal and external network security With the development and growth of enterprises and the mobile office popularity, gradually formed a corporate headquarters, local branches, mobile workers such a new interactive mode of operation. How deal headquarters and branch offices, mobile workers to share information security, it is necessary to ensure the timely sharing of information, but also to prevent the leakage of confidential business growth has become the process had to consider. Institutions and around the headquarters of the network connection between the security of the efficient operation of enterprises directly affected. 1. SME Network Analysis SMEs because of their size, industry differences, work and management practices of different organizations have different network topologies. Network under the following conditions. Centralized: SME networks are generally only set up a complete network based layout. Dedicated to access, ADSL access lines or access to other network access methods, the total number of common network devices range in the tens to hundreds. Some of the network division of the subnet, and deployed with the core business-related servers, such as database, mail server, document database, or ERP servers. Distributed: Take office and mobile multi-way branch, the branch network are deployed, not much. Dedicated access to a large branch, general branch means access to ADSL. Mainly through the VPN to access the host device and database company, by mail or internal network for business communication. Integrated: Centralized and decentralized integrated. Integrated enterprise network diagrams 2. Network security design principles Network security system is to achieve the core objectives of network operation system and application of effective control and management. Any security system must be based on technical, organizational and institutional foundation of these three. System design principles Level by analyzing the relationship between information networks and put forward the scientific and security framework security system, security system based on analysis of the various forms of security risks, thus maximizing the potential security problems to solve. Global integrated design principles From the actual situation of SMEs, relying solely on a security measure, and can not solve all security problems. Recommendations take into account a variety of security measures for the use of a very high degree, scalability, strong security solutions and products. Feasibility, reliability and safety The fundamental feasibility of security solutions that will directly affect the smooth flow of network communications platforms, security systems and network reliability is a communication platform to ensure the normal operation, but security is the ultimate goal of designing secure systems. 3. Overall network security architecture Security program must structure the scientific network security systems architecture, security architecture because it is a safe basis for design and analysis. Overall security architecture With the application layer attacks for more and more a growing threat, only for the following network layer security solutions have been insufficient to meet the attack from the application layer. Here is a simple example, those carrying the worm backdoor program is a simple firewall / VPN security systems are not able to cope. We therefore propose to use three-dimensional multi-layered enterprise security architecture. Shown in Figure 2, this multi-layered security system not only requires the boundary set in the network firewall / VPN, but also set against network viruses and spam and other application layer attacks, protective measures, the application layer of protection on the network edge, This active defense can stop the attack entirely outside the corporate intranet. 1. The whole security system The above planning and analysis, the proposed SME enterprise network security system in accordance with the system to achieve the purpose, using a security gateway integrated with high reliability to achieve the following system functions: Firewall VPN system Intrusion Detection System Network Behavior Monitoring System Spam filtering system Virus scanning system -Bandwidth management system Wireless access system 2. Programme proposals 2.1. Overall network security solutions Through the above needs analysis, we recommend the following overall network security solutions. Network Security Platform consists of the following components: Firewall: A firewall system to achieve the internal network and wide area networks in isolation protection. Server on the internal network separate sub-networks based firewall for protection. VPN system: remote and branch office staff to facilitate the IPSecVPN access, protection of data transmission security, realization of users controlled access to the server system. Intrusion Detection System: The intrusion detection device, functions as a firewall complementary control segment provides real-time attack I am a professional editor from China Suppliers, and my work is to promote a free online trade platform. http://www.frbiz.com/ contain a great deal of information about glass faceted beads , jade bead welcome to visit!
