Course: Cybersecurity Operations (10302-II) > Section: Introducing Network Design Essentials

Analysis should include

- uses
- characteristics
- role in the network environment
- cost and benefit analysis
- hardware specifications (e.g., redundant array of independent disks [RAID], hot-swappable devices)
- importance of higher system requirements (e.g., symmetric multiprocessing [SMP], Small Computer System Interface [SCSI] storage, additional random access memory [RAM], or central processing unit [CPU]).
