Project Description

This project is set to replace the core routers at Town Hall, Fire 1 and Fire 2. The core routers are the main network communication devices for transferring data across the network between buildings and the internet.

Project Justification

Keeping up on the lifecycle of our core routers will have the following impacts. 1. Staying up to date with new security features 2. Higher encryption standards to maintain data integrity 3. Keep maintenance and support for our devices 4. Increase network efficiency and uptime
