Customer Case Study
Alphawest, a Cisco Gold Certified Partner, was selected by
Optus to deploy the solution based upon their experience
and expertise delivering and customising IP solutions and
enterprise networks. As one of Australia’s leading Unified
Communications solution providers to government and
commercial organisations, Alphawest is at the forefront of
the voice-data convergence wave with strong processes
and methods to deliver a consistently highly valued
customer experience.

Garry Henley, chief executive officer, Alphawest, says,
“Alphawest was very pleased to have been awarded
the deployment services contract for Optus’ Macquarie
Park project. Our technical skills and enviable proven
record of successfully deploying sophisticated converged
solutions, combined with Cisco’s expertise, helped us
secure the business. Being involved in one of the largest
IP network and communications rollouts in Australia has
given us valuable insight and further validated that our
flexible customer-centric approach is a highly desirable
attribute sought.

Business Value
Implementation work began in February 2007 and ran until just before the first staff moves, although
design work and testing had begun some time earlier. Optus began moving approximately 6500 staff to
the new campus in July 2007. Some of the benefits that they will experience include:

Extensive Wireless Coverage
Wireless access is now provided throughout the facility and available to all employees as well as guests.
Whether at their desks, in meeting rooms, or outdoors on the campus, employees will continue to
stay connected to corporate applications. In the event that Optus plays host to external consultants or
business guests, the Cisco BBSM will allow simple user authentication, configuration, and tracking of
guest access and activities.

Traffic Management and Quality of Service (QoS)
The Cisco solution will also make it easier for Optus to manage both the wired and wireless LAN,
monitor data traffic, and identify bottlenecks. Using a centralised management system, Optus will be
able to automate device manageability tasks, gain visibility to the network’s health and capability, and
identify and localise network trouble.

Scalability
As the campus’ physical footprint expands, Optus can easily add more access points. On the other
hand, if certain physical locations are expected to contain more users, the wireless network can be
configured to divert more bandwidth resources to the areas of high load. In the case of the Unified
Communications, more IP phones can simply be plugged in when needed. It is this scalability that will
allow Optus to keep up with increasing demands in the future.

Security and Access
Another important feature of the Cisco wireless network will be the ability to segment the network into
virtual LANs. Depending on the role and department that the user belongs to, Optus will be able to
create logical networks using the network management tool.

Cisco access points and wireless LAN controllers can simultaneously act as data-serving devices
and security sensors. Cisco access points and controllers are equipped with a robust library of attack
signatures that are used to detect wireless threats, which could include the use of unauthorised APs
and the creation of unplanned networks.

NAC features of the wireless network allow Optus to identify whether networked devices such as
laptops or IP phones are compliant with a network’s security policies and help repair any vulnerability
before permitting access to the network. Network administrators are able to passively scan all
