Summary of project experience

Country-wide network

• 1999 - 2000 - Country-wide corporate WAN of Belarusbank, with nodes in 10 belorussian towns. Based on Cisco 3600, 2600 series routers. Whole IP network contains about 35 routers and about 3000 hosts.  Monitored with SNMP management systems CastleRock SNMPc, CiscoWorks Windows.
• 1998 - 1999 - Country-wide access of branches through X25 network of Belorussian interbank settlement center (BISC), protocol translation X25 to TCP to use corporate IP network. X25 and X28 for access through regional PDN, PPP for dialup. NAT for load balancing servers.
  

Metropolitan area network

• 1997 - 2000 - Optical network of Belarusbank, with about  25 branches across Minsk. Partially meshed star topology, built on  Cisco 4500-M, 2500, 2600.  Monitored with SNMP management systems CastleRock SNMPc, CiscoWorks Windows.
• 1999 - 2000 - Private X25 network for Mastercard/Visa transaction system, with access to country and  international X25 network. Appropriate subaddressing, call routing, protocol translation. 
  

LAN

• 1998 - 2000 - Current Ethernet/Fast Ethernet LAN of our main office (about  600 nodes, built on Cisco Catalyst 5505 and a number of Catalyst 1900, 1924, 3524XL, 2924XL). Monitored with CiscoView Windows. Troubleshooting with help of NetworkGeneral NetXray.
• 1999 - Large Ethernet/FastEthernet LAN  400 nodes of our big branch (with hybrid cabling system 1500 nodes of category 5), ISL VLANs and IP routing, fiber optic connection to corporate network. Based on Cisco 5505 and 1900 switches and Cisco 3620 router.
