environment to simulate that of an enterprise. Specifically we will be setting up at minimum four Virtual Machines using RIT’s RLES vCloud resource. Each one of the VMs created will serve a purpose in laying the foundation for future lab work. The first VM will serve as a router, bridging the newly formed virtual LAN to the network connected to the rest of the world. In my case I chose to use PFSense based on its simple configuration. Next I deployed a Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7 server to act as
System Proposal Linux has long been one of many operating systems that have been out to prove its worth in all types of environment. It is currently being considered for enterprise network purposes as well as data centers where it implies servers, workstations and any mainframes as needed. Choosing what operating system to use, whether it is open source or not, can be difficult, though. This paper projects the advantages and concerns of choosing an open source solution like Linux as administrators
three different Linux vendors in regards to their specific server and workstation OS products they offer in the workplace. In addition, I will discuss the price for each vendor, specifications, performance, and reliability. The three vendors I would like to discuss are Arch Linux, Red Hat Enterprise, and Ubuntu. Linux is an operating system that has several distros to choose from. Linux allows the user more control of the system and greater flexibility. As an open operating system, Linux is developed

We are recommending they implement an Enterprise Network Monitoring System (NMS). An NMS system uses This product will monitor SNMP traps from all devices on the network and then report them to a central dashboard. We recommend the company start a Network Operations Center (NOC) that conducts
Compare & Contrast Linux Christopher Varano Professor: Patricia Entesari April 12, 2014 Introduction Linux is a popular and widely used operating system and provides several options for use within business organizations as both a server and a workstation platform. Due to the open-source nature of the operating system there are various organizations who make available a server and a workstation platform along with their own customizations as part of a specific distribution
concerns. For example, the Mac OS X would be perfect for the graphic design department, but would not work out well in the engineering department, which is better suited for Windows or Linux. The major operating systems to choose from are Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh OS X and various distributions of Linux. For Linux, we will use RedHat/Fedora and Ubuntu as an example. Microsoft Windows Used in approximately 90 percent of computers worldwide, Microsoft Windows is indeed popular. It originated
The Pros and Cons of Linux versus Windows XP This may be the perfect time to move over to Linux. Windows XP was officially retired as of April 8, 2014. Although we can continue using Windows XP, the two most important factors to consider are 1) there will no longer be security patches released by Microsoft; and 2) they are no longer supporting this product. Additionally, if our XP machines are more than six years old, which we suspect they are, chances are they won 't support the newer Windows releases
Windows NT and Linux: An inside look and comparison! One of the many challenges of a corporation, small business or educational institution is how to network the people within and outside the organization. Linux and Windows NT are two network operating systems that suit this purpose well, each having its respective advantages and disadvantages. One organization (Nichols College), began utilizing each operating system for two very different purposes. I will explain the function of the two operating
apps) on a cluster of commodity Intel PCs. The Linux OS is well-suited to small- to medium-sized operations, and is increasingly being used in large enterprises that would have previously considered Unix the only option. It has taken hold in Internet and e-commerce businesses, making the decision on whether to use Unix or Linux not as cut-and-dried as it may seem. A few years ago, the decision on whether to implement Unix or Linux was a no-brainer. Linux was an interesting academic project, but most
started from my school days and gift of a personal computer by my parents further boosted my quest to learn and understand both hardware and software. By enrolling in ‘Jetking’ Institute, I got acquainted with hardware and operating systems such as Red Hat Linux, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. On completion of high school, I decided that computer science was the most suitable career option. Progressing to Undergraduate studies in Computer Engineering and further gaining professional exposure as a
This report is going to talk about history of operating system, current development of the Open Source operating system (we are taking Linux operating system) and Windows operating system, evolving of operating system and comparison between Open Source and Proprietary System such as Windows. Besides that, we will take a deep look on how old operating system is being replaced by modern operating system in this fast developed technology era on evolving of operating system part. Here we will introduce
For the very start of this story about Linux we would like to define, in simple lines, what would be the Linux and its properties. Linux is an operating system, much like any other operating system but with a dose of uniqueness, that is based on the model of custom and open source free software research and development as well as the flexible movement on the market. This system was meant to be free from the first time it was made and published. It happened to be that the Intel x86-based pc’s were
1. INTRODUCTION Microsoft founded in 1975 by Bill Gates. It is the largest information technology (IT) company. For the year 2005, its revenue was US$39,788 million and net income after taxes US$12,254. Nevertheless, since the early 2000s, a string of bad news had seriously undermined the future growth of Microsoft. Personal Computer (PC) operating system and basic office are the near-monopoly software in the category. Purchase of QDOS (quick and dirty operating system) from Seattle programmer
Servers on Linux. ## What is SoftEther SoftEther VPN is one of the world's most powerful and easy-to-use multi-protocol VPN software made by the good folks at University of Tsukuba, Japan. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, FreeBSD and Solaris and is freeware and open-source. You can use SoftEther for any personal or commercial use for free of charge. ## Step 1: Create a Droplet First of all create a DO droplet. As mentioned in SoftEther's website, SoftEther will work on almost every Linux distro with
Business intelligence (BI) is ubiquitous; it is disseminated throughout the world and is applied in almost every department of Information technology and business. The advent of BI has helped organizations across the world to surpass many of the constraints, pressures and challenges they had been facing for years. There are several methodologies and principles in place that are used to make sense of massive amounts of raw data in organizations and convert them to useful information. There are
