约郡, 位于加州东部, is the state’s 2nd largest county in land area at 10,1000平方米mls, and claims the highest and lowest elevation in the contiguous United States: Mt. 惠特尼和死亡谷. 拥有450名员工, 24 departments – including administration, property tax collection and law enforcement – spread across 13 locations and 15 satellite offices, the focus for 约郡’s Information Technology team is reliable connectivity.
Desafios
When a network spans 10,1000平方米mls, a limited IT staff creates a challenge. Inyo needed a network that was easier to manage, adaptable to deal with more extreme weather and natural disasters, and flexible to handle expanding traffic.
Ação
约郡 built a reliable, performance focused, fast network to support employees and services. They expanded bandwidth and speeds between buildings and to the desktop. Power over Ethernet (PoE) supported transition to a Voice over IP (VoIP) phone network. The 最短路径桥接 (SPB) protocol eased network configuration and traffic flow, and centralising network management achieved reliable and stable connectivity.
Inyo’s environmental and geographic conditions require redundancy to maintain uptime, 根据迈克尔·巴弗雷的说法, Sr. Inyo县的程序员分析师. “A fibre uplink at one of our facilities was accidentally knocked offline,” Baffrey shared. “With the immediate and automatic re-routing of SPB, 剩余在线服务, and nobody knew there was an issue. It wasn’t discovered until a day later during routine maintenance. 我们已经添加了电子邮件提醒.” More redundant links are planned between locations, and the auto-configuration technology in the switches will handle setup and connectivity. The county plans to roll out more Wi-Fi at offices and continue to increase capacity across the service area.
