Creating an Internet Service Provider

The network division of Mälardalen University requires a sharp internet connection via the creation of a local small scale Internet Service Provider (ISP) to realize the demands of a modern and advanced network education. The objective of this book is to design and implement a small scale ISP for the NetCenter sub department at Mälardalen University in Sweden. The ISP is intended to give NetCenter a network separate from the university's network, providing them with a more flexible environment for lab purposes. The network is designed with a layered approach including an Internet access layer, a larger core segment and a distribution layer with a separated lab network. It also incorporates both a public and a private server network, housing servers running e.g. Windows Active Directory, external DNS services, monitoring tools and logging applications. The Internet access is achieved by peering with the Swedish university network SUNET providing a full BGP feed. This book is useful for network technicians or CIOs in thought of establishing a sharp connection to the internet for complete control or for other individuals with an interest in network technology or Linux servers.
