Case Study

Priory School

Challenge

SysGroup were invited to look at Priory School’s infrastructure as their previous wired and wireless network was unreliable and not able to cope with modern demands. The school had a D-Link Network with poor structure and little management capability.

Solution

After a complete survey of the existing network, SysGroup proposed a solution including:

A new network to allow for greater control and cope with user demands
Fully-designed VLAN and IP Schema
Migration plan which involved installing a Cisco 4 X 3750X stack layer 3 core connecter to the server infrastructure
Cisco 3750X core connecting fibre to 17 Cisco Meraki switches and 50 Cisco Meraki access points
5 series WatchGuard firewall for web security
IPS/AV/APT Blocker

Result

The school now has:

A robust, secure infrastructure to cope with wireless demands
Full availability during evenings and holiday periods
Entire system monitored securely from SysGroup's Telford data centres

Testimonial
With SysGroup, I ended up with a complete plan and roadmap. I’d recommend SysGroup as they understand, listen and care about what they do passionately. I also found them really professional.
