MC600 Series Media Converters allow Ethernet or Fast

Ethernet to be transported simultaneously with voice over

the existing telephone cables.

Benefits of the new network solution

Resilience

The SwitchBlade 4008 switches provide feature rich, resilient

switching technology capable of dealing with multi-casting

(for streaming video), network control, and security.

High Availability

High availability in the core of the network is also provided

by the SwitchBlade switches, which feature built in

redundancy in switching capacity, control and power supply,

and guarantee maximum uptime and throughput of network

traffic for access to critical applications and online tools.

Scalability

A wide choice of line cards is available for a 4 or 8 slot

SwitchBlade chassis, providing options for connecting to a

range of network equipment, as well as a high capacity for

future expansion.The availability of a 10GbE line card means

future high bandwidth applications can be readily adopted.

Enhanced Functionality

The new network allows users the convergence of voice,

video, and data.The Gendarmerie can now utilize the

network for information sharing efficiently and effectively,

whether they are locally connected or connected to the

national intranet from a remote location.

The use of Layer 3 switches in the network core has

allowed the network to be segmented using Virtual LANs

(VLANs). Some of the advantages of using VLANs are that

users can be grouped together according to their

networking needs - regardless of their actual physical

locations - and that users have the appropriate access to

resources.

Improved Efficiency

Real time, reliable situational awareness facilitates planning

and successful execution of operations. With such a wide

ranging scope of operations across France, the

Gendarmerie's new network solution means considerable

improvements in efficiency, with resultant cost benefits.

Security

At the network edge, the Allied Telesis AT-8500 Series

managed switches provide a strong focus on security

features, and are able to detect a number of different Denial

of Service (DoS) attacks. Automated user login provides

controlled access to the network using 802.1x port

authentication

Secure remote connection to central resources is facilitated

by the Allied Telesis AR750S and AR440S routers VPN

(Virtual Private Networking) capabilities. The VPN

connections encrypt all data between the central and

remote sites.

Key decision factors

Allied Telesis' long standing relationship with the

Gendarmerie Nationale has provided a solid understanding

of the Gendarmerie's networking requirements, and enabled

Allied Telesis to successfully secure a number of contracts

over the years. Product training, hands-on support and

outstanding service have all been instrumental in the success

of the relationship. The most recent contracts were secured

in conjunction with APM France and Siemens. Siemens are

well known in the networking industry and highly regarded

for their level of skill and experience.

Another key decision factor was Allied Telesis wide portfolio

of products. The available range meant the Gendarmerie

were able to be confident of meeting a complex set of

requirements from one vendor.

"The network solution perfectly met the Gendarmerie's

requirements for functionality, performance, quality, and reliability;

and the optimum market positioning satisfied the budget

requirements. Thanks to the reliability, support, warranty and

services provided by Allied Telesis, the annual OPEX for

maintenance has decreased for the Gendarmerie since this

solution was implemented"
