Here are the notes I have from our meeting with Russ Nelson (3/18)
regarding separate TCP/IP-host services for our residential network. Let
me know if this information needs correction:
1. DNS is the biggest resource "hog" of all of our TCP/IP host services
2. We need a separate IP subnet for our residential network. We should set
up the router between our 2 campus networks so that bootp requests don't
cross the IP subnets.
3. The design for separate hosts, using existing equipment, would be as follows:
Residential LAN TCP/IP-host services (router between here and main campus LAN)
------------------------------------
Ultrix box functions
--------------------
- POP3 mail server for students
- SMTP (or QMail) server for students
- Interactive accounts
Sun SPARC station 1
-------------------
- bootp for residential LAN hosts
- Secondary DNS
- NetNews server
Main campus LAN TCP/IP-host services (router between here and residential LAN)
------------------------------------
Sun SPARC station 2
-------------------
- campus email hub
- POP3 server for faculty/staff
- Primary DNS
- bootp for main campus LAN hosts
