= System setup =
Currently, what we know are the uses for the three machines we will base our infrastructure on. We also know our Abulafia machine configuration, and Justin Leitgeb's to-be-donated server configuration. What we need to come up with, is the ideal setup for the third machine that we will have to buy. So, the machine configurations and intended uses follow:

== Justin Leitgeb's donation: Dell PowerEdge 2850 ==
 * Processor: 2 x 2.8 GHz
 * RAM: 4 GB
 * Disks:
  * 4 x 10K Seagate Cheetah SCSI drives, 73GB '''and'''
  * 2 x 10K Seagate Cheetah SCSI drives, 36GB
 * Extra: RAID kit, with battery, etc., 256 MB RAID cache, 2 power supplies
'''Intended use: fileserver and host for all services that don't involve dynamic content provided by non-admins. No user logins.'''

== HCoop's currently-underused machine Abulafia ==
 * Processor: 1 x 900 MHz
 * RAM: 512 MB
 * Disks: 40 GB RAID 1 (2 x 40 GB 7200 RPM ATA drives)
 * Extra: 3Ware 6400 PCI ATA RAID controller
'''Intended use: refurbished slightly to serve as a generic shell server and the only machine where usage not strictly related to "Internet hosting" is permitted.'''

Line 22: Line 9:
== New server, for which we need to come up with hardware specifications ==
 * Processor: Single AMD 275 (Dual-core)
 * RAM: 4 GB RAM (2 x 2 GB)
 * Disks: 2 x 120 GB SATA
 * Penguin Model: Altus 1300
 * List price: $3163.00
 * Extra: Should be 1U. Goal is to make it processor intensive, and only disk-heavy enough to ensure a high level of uptime. Other considerations such as a preference for AMD and the vendor Penguin Computing that have been expressed on the list and in meetings should be followed here.

We are proceeding under the assumption that we'll use ShaunEmpie's donation (see HardwareDonations), a Nortel (Baystack) 380 switch. He says:
'''Use: secondary DNS on a different subnet, all tasks requiring remote location.'''

VLAN Configuration Proposal: == busted ==
Line 39: Line 24:
{{{
With our new setup, I think it would be best to setup a few different
VLANs for different uses. For anyone who is unfamiliar with the term, a
VLAN is a virtual lan. It allows you to have completely separate networks
on the same switch. This will allow us to setup a private network that
the public and peer1 would have no access to. This could be handy for
database systems, NAS, backup servers, etc which you'd want to keep off
the public network.

Line 56: Line 49:
For a starting point i think having ports 1-12 in VLAN 10 and ports 13-24
in VLAN 20 would be best. The VLAN membership of a port can be changed
easily so these would not be set in stone.
Line 60: Line 50:
The switch allows for many more VLANs than we'll ever need so if anyone
has a suggestion or need for another VLAN it would be trivial to setup.
Any questions/comments, let me know.
