PROPOSAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS, FORMAT AND CONTENT:
Central New Mexico Community College (CNM) invites you to submit a proposal for the services specified in this
Request for Proposals. Please read carefully all instructions, specifications, terms and conditions. Failure to
comply with the instructions, specifications, terms and conditions of this Request for Proposals may result in your
proposal being declared non-responsive. The purchase of materials and or services awarded under this Request is
subject to CNM's General Terms and Conditions as well as all statements contained in this Request for Proposals.
All terms and conditions of the Request for Proposals shall remain unchanged for the duration of any resultant
agreement(s) and shall supersede and take precedence over any vendor agreement forms. Additional or different
terms proposed by the vendor are hereby rejected unless agreed to in writing by CNM. The New Mexico criminal
law prohibits bribes, gratuities and kickbacks (13-1-28 through 13-1-199, NMSA 1978).
Any and all clarifications of instructions, specifications, scope, requirements, terms and conditions, insurance,
bonds, or proposal preparation, etc. shall be made only by the Buyer listed above or other CNM Purchasing
designees. All requests for clarification or exception to instructions, terms and conditions, specifications,
requirements, scope, insurance, bonds, or proposal preparation, etc. must be made in writing, addressed to the
Buyer listed above, and submitted no later than five (5) business days prior to the proposal due date. Technical
questions concerning scope of work, CNM's requirements, needs or expectations and the vendor's requirements,
needs or expectations must be directed to the technical clarification contact listed above. If a technical clarification
contact is not listed above, then all such questions must be directed to the Buyer listed above. If appropriate in
CNM's sole judgment, CNM Purchasing may issue a written Amendment or addendum which shall thereafter
become part of this Request for Proposals. No oral interpretations shall be binding upon CNM unless reduced to a
written amendment issued by CNM Purchasing prior to the proposal due date and time. Your reliance on any such
oral interpretations shall be deemed to be unreasonable.
Each respondent, by submitting a response, represents that the respondent has read and completely understands the
request for qualifications documents and agrees to abide by the terms of this RFP and any resulting agreement.
Failure of the selected contractor to fulfill the provisions of this request for qualifications shall in no way relieve
the obligation of the Contractor to furnish all services necessary to carry out the provisions of the agreement.
The general terms and conditions on the reverse side of CNM’s purchase order are an equal and integral part of this
request for proposals (RFP) and are noted in Section C. The terms, conditions and specifications contained in this
RFP along with any attachments and the Offeror’s response are hereby incorporated into all purchase orders issued
as a result of this RFP, including any addenda. CNM reserves the right to negotiate with a successful Offeror
(contractor) provisions in addition to those stipulated in this RFP. The contents of this RFP, as revised and/or
supplemented, and the successful Offeror’s proposal will be incorporated into the contract. Should an offeror object
to any of the CNM standard terms and conditions that Offeror must propose specific alternative language that
would be acceptable to CNM. General references to the Offeror’s terms and conditions or attempts at complete
substitutions are not acceptable to CNM and will result in disqualification of the Offeror’s proposal. Offerors must
provide a brief statement of the purpose and impact, if any, of each proposed change followed by the specific
proposed alternate wording.
CNM is not responsible for representations made by any of its officers or employees prior to the execution of the
Agreement(s) unless such understanding or representation is included in the RFP or in subsequent written addenda
or responses provided to all proposers by CNM’s Purchasing Department. CNM is responsible only for that which
is expressly stated in the solicitation document and any authorized addenda thereto. Any cost incurred by the
Respondent in preparation, transmittal or presentation of any proposal or material submitted in response to the RFP
shall be borne solely by the Respondent.
Contractor shall not be an employee of CNM and is responsible for federal and state payroll and service taxes such
as social security, unemployment and gross receipts taxes. Service required by this RFP for which the Successful
Offeror does not identify cost will be borne at the Offeror’s expense and will not be charged to CNM.

failure or omission and of a reasonable time within which to
cure the deficiency. Contractor shall be required to take
corrective measures within such time. Contractor's failure to

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
The following list the basic services that are of interest to CNM in terms of what CNM requires today and
is considering for the future. Detailed requirements for services are defined under Goals & Objectives in
the section describing each service. Each service as described may be awarded individually to vendors
who meet or exceed mandatory requirements as determined by CNM to be in its best interest.
2.2.1
Primary Services – For the purposes of this RFP a Primary Service is defined as the principal production
service capable of independently delivering 100% of CNM’s software without performance impacts under
normal operational conditions based on 99.9% annual availability. It is CNM’s practice to dual home all
primary services to both of its two Main Campus communications entrance facilities.
2.2.2
Secondary Services – For the purposes of this RFP a Secondary Service is defined as an ancillary
production service that is capable of independently delivering CNM’s essential instructional and business
traffic in the event of an interruption or performance degradation of Primary Service. Secondary Services
shall be fully capable and configured to operate in an Active/Active mode so that they may augment the
Primary Service in terms of capacity, performance and availability during normal operational conditions.
To ensure a higher degree of redundancy CNM requires that to the extent possible Secondary Services be
provided by a Vendor other than the provider of the primary service utilizing independent media that
follows a geographically separate and diverse pathway back to a geographically separate point of origin.
Secondary Services are consolidated at CNM’s Westside Campus unless they serve a specific branch
campus or auxiliary location. Secondary Services are not required for Phase I of this RFP “The Pilot
Phase” however, consideration should give to the responses that Phase II and III will require Secondary
Services.
2.2.3
The pilot phase identifies the business and functional goals of CNM and develops system requirements for
the VDI POC based on those goals. Also during this phase, CNM will identify users that will benefit from
virtual desktops and select users to participate in the VDI POC. Key components to be defined are listed
here.

EXHIBIT F: CURRENT TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENT
Summary - Current Technology Environment:
CNM is comprised of seven campuses in the Albuquerque metropolitan area:
Main Campus (MAIN), Joseph M. Montoya Campus (JMMC), South Valley
Campus (SVC), Workforce Training Center (WTC), West Side Campus
(WSC), Rio Rancho Campus (RRC) and the Applied Technology Center
(ATC). Street addresses, campus layouts, building names and parking areas
are provided per the below link: http://www.cnm.edu/maps-and-directory
Each location supports a Gigabit switched network that is connected to the
Main Campus Multi-Gigibit backbone.
Wide Area Network (WAN)
connectivity between campuses is provided through Gigabit capable Fiber via
Century Link’s Metro Optical Ethernet (MOE) network. Individual campus
bandwidth is scalable up to 1 Gigibit and varies according to the requirements
of each campus. CNM maintains three scalable Gigibit capable Ethernet
connections to the Internet provided by Time Warner Telecom and Century
Link. Internet connectivity is diversified between CNM’s Main Campus and its
Westside Campus. CNM also supports two remote Small Business
Developmental Centers (SBDCs), one of which is connected via a point-topoint T-1 circuit, the other utilizes a low bandwidth MOE connection. CNM
has secured the network using internal and external firewalls. The primary
network protocol suite supported by CNM is TCP/IP. iSCSI storage protocol
is also used on our storage networks. CNM has developed a private and
public network, as well as multiple VLANS for security and traffic aggregation
purposes. All campuses use multiple private sub-netted IP schemes. CNM
has the ability to statically assign IP addresses to those devices requiring
direct assignment. CNM also maintains a number of labs that are physically
isolated from CNM’s network in order to support an environment that is
conducive to the unique instructional requirements of its networking and OS
instructional programs. These labs currently use DSL connection for Internet
access and are in the process of being migrated to VRF connections to
CNM’s network.
CNM has two primary authentication domains, MS Active Directory, and
LDAP. Both of these databases are populated from CNM’s ERP system,
Elucian’s Banner (formerly Sungard Banner). Password consistency is
maintained through an in house application. CNM’s Active Directory is
currently undergoing a major upgrade and reengineering project but is
currently serviced by a minimum of two domain controllers and one global
catalog server on each campus, with additional servers including root domain
controllers on Main Campus. LDAP authentication is provided by a
combination of OpenLDAP and Luminis LDAP and CAS. Applications are run

locally as well as from servers. In addition, there are several Windows 2008
r2 and 2012 servers providing file, print, database and email services. The
Institute supports two email systems: Microsoft’s Exchange Server 2007 for
employee email and Google’s Gmail for students. The desktop operating
system is primarily Microsoft Windows 7. A Redhat LINUX environment
supports the Institute’s primary business and academic support application
(Elucian Banner) as well as the Institute’s primary web support application
(Elucian Luminis). Luminis includes a Content Management System (CMS)
and portal software. The Banner environment uses the Oracle Relational
Database Management System and Oracle WebLogic Forms and Web
Servers. Redhat Linux systems also support web, email, and DNS. Currently
CNM’s Linux systems run Red Hat Enterprise Advanced Server versions 4
through 7 and Ubutune 8, 10 and 12. Internal DNS/DHCP services are
provided via a Microsoft Active Directory solution. External DNS is provided
via BIND.
Hardware Environment:
Cable Plant Inside Plant (ISP)
 Category 6 UTP cabling is currently CNM’s standard for all new
installations. However various generations of UTP cabling ranging from
Category 3 to Category 6 remain in use for both data and voice
connectivity. While CNM is actively working to replace older cabling
systems throughout its facilities it will take a number of years to
completely upgrade all sub-standard cabling. The older cabling poses a
major challenge to CNM’s goal of providing Gigabit networking across its
wired network.
 In newer cable installations a common cable plant supports both voice
and data networks. In older installations separate cable plants remain in
use for voice and data networks.
 Structured cable installations in newer buildings and buildings that have
been completely recabled are comprised of single manufacturer’s
warranted cable systems within any given building. However a number of
different manufacture’s cabling solutions are used in various buildings.
All newer installations conform to IEEE Category 6 standards.
 16 of CNM’s 34 permanent, major buildings have been completely
upgraded to current structured cable standards using Category 5 and 6
cable. Cabling in older buildings that have not been upgraded are
comprised of mixed manufacture’s components both within a given
building and do not conform to IEEE Category standards.
 Multi-mode fiber and bundled copper is utilized for riser cabling and
connectivity to ISP distribution.
Cable Plant Outside Plant (OSP)

Currently CNM buildings are connected with a variety of single-mode,
multi-mode and copper cabling through various pathways that have been
constructed over a thirty year period. At all locations CNM is migrating
toward single-mode fiber and away from multi-mode fiber for OSP
distribution. Copper bundles remain in place at all locations primarily for
analog and digital phone communications.
CNM is in the process of constructing bi-directional fiber loops at each of
its campuses in which multiple underground conduits provide pathways
for redundant fiber from a central distribution facility to each campus
building. This model of OSP distribution has been established at newer
campuses such as WSC. Similar provisions for building connectivity
have been implemented at SVC. Plans to pursue this approach to OSP
distribution have been incorporated at CNM’s single building campuses
(ATC, RRC & WTC) with the construction of subsequent buildings. At the
larger JMMC campus, construction is near completion with full OSP build
out only lacking two out of 6 major buildings. Completion of the OSP at
CNM’s MAIN Campus remains the greatest cabling challenge with limited
single-mode fiber, aging copper and substandard distribution pathways
accounting for 80% of the Main Campus OSP.
A project to address CNM’s Main Campus OSP deficiencies has been
approved for fiscal year 2013 and will begin with an engineering study in
conjunction with a number of other CNM facility projects involving
extensive civil engineering. CNM has recently installed some
underground communications utilities however overall completion
remains a few years out. As a result CNM’s Main Campus OSP
connectivity consists of a best effort approach to utilize available cable
and pathways while working to upgrade facilities as construction
opportunities permit.
Data Centers
 CNM has two state-of-the-art data facilities. The primary facility is located
on A 3,000 square foot primary facility is located on CNM’s Main Campus
and was completed in 2010. The 1500 square foot facility and CNM’s
Westside Campus was completed in 2011. Both data facilities were
designed to provide CNM with a flexible environment to ensure stable,
secure and highly available data processing and application hosting well
into the future. Both facilities are designed to accommodate commodity
equipment and are not intended to house specialized of main frame type
equipment. Overall data center availability is based on a hybrid N+1
design that can achieve up to 99.95% availability between both the
primary and secondary facilities.
(See Exhibit G: Data Center Floor Plans)
 Electrical distribution within both data centers is provided through
dedicated independent primary and secondary distribution systems.
Redundant primary and secondary PDI WaveStar Series Power
Distribution Units (PDUs) provide conditioned power to a dual path

Starline Track Busway system installed above each row of equipment
racks. This overhead distribution in turn feeds a primary and secondary
power distribution bars installed within each rack. To ensure high
availability every server, appliance, storage and network device must be
provisioned for redundant power and properly connected to both primary
and secondary distribution systems. The power distribution system is
capable of providing any combination of redundant power ranging from 3
Phase 480 volts to Single Phase 120 volts to any rack location using
modular power receptacles up to a total of 125 watts per square foot.
(Additional expansion capacity has been engineered at both facilities to
provide 200 watts per square foot with the installation of additional PDUs,
UPS and cooling equipment.) A separate system of electrical receptacles
for unconditioned power is provided around the data center perimeter to
power tools and cleaning equipment.
Uninterruptible Power is provided with a GE Digital Energy SG Series
Uninterruptable Power System (UPS). The UPS provides conditioned
and battery backup power to the data center’s electrical distribution
system and at full data center build out is capable of providing up to ten
minutes of battery power to the data center floor. This allows adequate
time for generator startup and stabilization in the event of a utility power
failure.
Generator power is provided with a single dedicated Cummins diesel
generator at each data center location. CNM’s data center facilities are
considered a hybrid N+1 design due to the fact that only a single
generator and utility power connection exists at each location. However
both data centers are connected to separate local power grids and are
designed to failover to each other. This negates the need for redundant
generators and utility power at each location.
Cooling, air filtration and humidification is provided with multiple Liebert
DS Series cooling units at each location. Cooling remains the single
most limited growth factor for any data center design. CNM’s data
facilities are currently designed to cool up to 125 watts per square foot
and have been engineered with floor space to expand cooling capability
to 200 watts per square foot with additional cooling units. A hot/cold aisle
and raised floor configuration allows for under floor cold air to be directed
into the cold aisles and passed through data processing equipment into
hot aisles where it is returned to the cooling units overhead through the
plenum. The depth of the under floor area is designed to pass the
maximum volume of air and is dedicated to this purpose. Installation of
under floor cabling is detrimental to effective air flow and should be
avoided. The data centers have been engineered to accept cold aisle
containment panels. Cold aisle containment has not been installed at this
time. Cold aisle containment has the potential to significantly reduce
operating cost and possibly increase maximum build out capacity.
Within the data centers cabling utilizes overhead distribution of OM5
multi-mode fiber and Category 6 copper. At no point in either facility does

the copper cabling exceed 55 meters allowing 10Gbps distribution within
IEEE specifications. Structured data cabling distributes from a dedicated
core distribution row to dedicated distribution racks located at the end of
each row. Sufficient cabling has been installed to provide primary and
secondary connectivity while minimizing the need to install additional
cable between the racks. By utilizing the end of row and core distribution
design, connectivity between any two device locations in the data center
can be achieved either by patching at the distribution points or through
the facility’s network equipment. Typically initial equipment deployments
within a given row are intended to connect using the 24, permanently
installed Category 6 cables that extend from the end row to each rack
following the end of row model. This will allow typically between six to
eight devices to be installed per rack depending on the number of NICs
required in each device. Once the copper capacity has been exceeded in
each rack the distribution model shifts from end of row distribution to top
of rack distribution with the installation of primary and secondary network
switches in the top of the rack. Connectivity from the top of rack switches
to the end of row switches is established utilizing the 24 pairs of OM5
fiber that are permanently installed from the end of row distribution to the
top of each rack. Using the top of rack distribution each facility can be
fully equipped up to its maximum cooling capacity.
Connectivity from the data centers to the campus cable plant and network
distribution is achieved through dedicated pathways directly between the
data centers and the campus distribution facilities. The data centers are
considered isolated nodes on the network, (similar to an independent
building) and are not part of the building’s cable distribution system.
Main Campus Data Center (MDC) went into production in fall 2010 and is
considered CNM’s primary data facility intended to house production, preproduction and developmental systems. The MDC comprised 3,000
square feet of raised floor area and 91 equipment racks, 72 of which are
dedicated for commodity servers, appliances and storage devices. Eight
racks are dedicated to cable and network distribution. The remaining 11
racks house the data center network distribution and storage equipment.
The MDC can theoretically house nearly 1,900 one and two unit
commodity devices and supporting equipment before exceeding its
maximum heat load as determined by current equipment standards.
Based on this assumption the facility is currently 12% utilized. Growth
predictions of 5% per year are anticipated. This facility was designed to
ensure not only CNM’s future data processing requirements but also to
allow for collaboration and other opportunities with New Mexico’s higher
education and K-12 institutions as well as other educational partnerships.
Westside Data Center (WSDC) went into limited production in 2011 with
initial equipment build out still underway. The WSDC is considered
CNM’s secondary data facility intended to house production equipment to
meet CNM’s business continuity requirements. The WSDC is essentially
one half the size of the MDC comprising 1,500 square feet of raised floor


area and 44 equipment racks, 30 of which are dedicated for commodity
servers, appliances and storage devices. 5 racks are dedicated to cable
and network distribution. The remaining 9 racks house the data center
network distribution and storage equipment. The MDC can theoretically
house nearly 850 one and two unit commodity devices and supporting
equipment before exceeding its maximum heat load as determined by
current equipment standards. Based on this assumption the facility is
currently less than 5% utilized. Growth predictions of 5% per year are
anticipated. This facility was designed to ensure not only CNM’s future
business continuity requirements but also to support collaboration and
other opportunities with New Mexico’s higher education and K-12
institutions as well as other educational partnerships.
Data Center equipment monitoring and notification is currently based on
capabilities of individual systems platforms. An integrated monitoring
system comprised of data, networking, power and environmental control
systems is a future consideration.
Network Systems
 The primary vendor of network equipment is Cisco Systems.
 CNM’s network connectivity and specific components are detailed in,
Exhibit H: Network Topology.
 CNM’s production data network is best described by breaking it down into
the following components that include:
 Core Network
 Data Center Distribution Networks
 Internet
 DMZ
 WAN
 Edge Networks
 Wireless
 CNM’s Core Network is comprised two Cisco 6509 chassis paired using
VSS located in two distribution locations on CNM’s Main Campus. A
single 6509 is located in CNM’s WSC Campus distribution Facility. The
core switches provide redundant Gigabit connectivity to building
distribution switches, Internet and Wide Area Networking equipment as
well as to the Data Centers. A dual core distribution model has been
established at CNM’s Main Campus to facilitate its large size and
geographical complexity. Widely separated primary and secondary
campus distribution facilities house the Core Network switches. In most
cases where sufficient single-mode fiber exists one pair of fiber is
connected from each building distribution switch to each core switch in
both campus distribution locations. This ensures a high degree of
availability as well as increased overall bandwidth.
NOTE: As previously stated in the section describing OSP Cable this
distribution model on Main Campus is a work in progress. Current

implementation is a best effort. Where sufficient single-mode fiber is
unavailable connectivity has been implemented using multi-mode fiber or
in a few cases dually redundant connections do not exist. Core
connections are typically Gigabit wherever adequate media for Gigabit
connections exist. Core switches are capable 10Gbps connections which
are provisioned as required.
Data Center Distribution is comprised using redundant pairs of Cisco
6509V data center class switches housed within each data center
location maintaining CNM’s requirements for separate primary and
secondary connections to all critical services. In turn the 6509 switches
are redundantly connected to a pair Cisco Nexus 5020 series switches
that provide up to 40Gbps connectivity to a pair of Cisco Nexus 5010
series switches at the end of each row of equipment racks within the data
center. As data center equipment density grows additional pairs of Cisco
Nexus 2000 series fabric extender switches are installed in the top of
each rack as needed. In addition Cisco V1000 switches are used for the
VM environment. So long as servers and appliances within the data
center have a minimum of two NICs and each properly configured and
connect to the primary and secondary data path failover can occur
without a service interruption. This is a key design feature and critical
factor in CNM’s maintenance strategy.
The DMZ serves as CNM’s public Internet zone providing a buffer
between public and private networks. (Note: CNM does not employ a
traditional DMZ as recognized by industry standards. A topology map of
CNM’s public Internet zone is provided in Exhibit G.) Cisco Adaptive
Security Appliance (ASA) firewalls provide critical network separation and
accessibility between networks. Firewall components consist of:
 Six Cisco ASAs provide Firewall and Virtual Private Network
(VPN)
o A Building Entrance Facility - Redundant pair of
ASA5540s and ASA5520s
o SRC and WSC Entrance Facility - Redundant pairs of
ASA5520s at each location
 Redundant Cisco WS-SVC-FWM-1 Firewall Service Modules
(FWSMs) provide Virtual Routing Forward (VRF) Contexts on
Distribution Chassis
 Access Control Lists (ACL's) are used in edge network.
 Microsoft Internet Security and Authorization (ISA).
In addition CNM utilizes the following security appliances:

Internet service is provided via three redundant Gigabit capable
connections. Two at Main Campus (one connection at each Main
Campus distribution facility) and one connection at WSC. TW Telecom
currently provides service to Main Campus and Century Link provides
service to WSC. All remote campuses traverse CNM’s Wide Area
Network for Internet access. Connections to the service provider’s
premise equipment uses Cisco ASR1001 routers. Connectivity is
configured for failover using BGP routing. Remote campuses are
weighted to route through WSC while Main Campus load balances
equaling between its primary and secondary connections.
(WAN) consists of scalable, Gigabit capable Metro Optical Ethernet (Wide
Area Network MOE) circuits provided by Century Link. Connection
speeds vary by campus ranging from 100Mbps for smaller campuses to
700Mbps for Main Campus. MOE premise equipment is connected to
CNM’s primary Core Network via a Cisco 3750 switch. CNM plans on
diversifying its WAN connections to both Main Campus distribution
facilities in the near future.
Edge Networks originally consisted of Cisco 4600 and 6500 series
chassis based switches for building distribution with smaller 24 and 48
port switches comprising distribution in Telecommunication Rooms (TRs)
outside of the building’s entrance facility. This model is rapidly being
replaced with Cisco 3750 stacks in the building entrance and other TRs.
A significant number of switch ports now require Power Over Ethernet
(POE) to support growing numbers of wireless access points, surveillance
cameras and other devices. Individual buildings are typically sub-netted
using private class “B” IP scopes and segmented by VLANS to separate
instructional, administrative, wireless and utility activities.
Wireless networking is in its seventh year at CNM and was originally
deployed using Cisco’s first generation of enterprise wireless equipment.
Today CNM supports over 800 Cisco access points of various models
and capabilities at all campuses. The original backend equipment and
many original access points remain in use today. The original equipment
is nearing end of life. As a result CNM is preparing to move forward with
a major project to update its wireless capabilities. The current wireless
environment utilizes SSIDs to allow access for guests, student
instructional activities and secure business applications. Authentication
to wireless resources is provided through Active Directory.
Phone System
 The primary vendor of phone equipment is Avaya.
 CNM’s phone connectivity and specific components are detailed in,
Exhibit J: Phone System Topology.
 CNM currently supports about 4500 analog and digital phone sets
including ARA, Code Blue and alarms located at all campuses.

A pair of redundant Avaya S8800 Media Servers running CM5.2 serve as
CNM’s central call processors for all locations and are housed in the Main
Campus primary distribution facility.
An Avaya S8800 Enterprise Survivability Server (ESS) resides at WSC
and is designed to support business continuity in the event of failure at
the Main Campus. All CNM’s G450 Gateways will re-register to the ESS
and receive central dial tone off the ESS for business continuity for all
satellite campus locations.
An Avaya S8300D Local Serviceability Server (LSP) resides at every
satellite campus location G450 Media Gateway stack to support business
continuity at each individual campus in the event of failure of the Main
Campus Call Manager and the failure of the ESS. This would mostly
likely be due to a failure of a WAN connection. The S8300 utilizes five,
independent basic business phone lines for limited trunking to provide
outgoing calls and 911 calls.
An Avaya G650 Carrier Stack or a G450 Media Gateway Stack are
located within the campus distribution facilities at each campus locations
and within each of three Main Campus copper distribution zones as
defined by University and Coal Avenues. An additional G450 Media
Gateway stack is installed in the Main Campus secondary distribution
facility to support the SRC Building.
Avaya G430 Gateways support CNM’s two small remote Small Business
Development Centers (SBDCs). There are no LSP’s installed in the
gateways at these two locations. One SBDC location is trunked over a
Point to Point (P2P) T-1 circuit and other SBDC is trunked over a copper
MOE.
An Avaya S8800 Unified Communications Message Application Server
(MAS) is integrated with CNM’s Microsoft Exchange Server environment
allowing voice messages to be accessed through email applications.
An Avaya S8800 Sip Enablement Server 5.2 (SES) is installed to
integrate between the Avaya Call Manager (CM) and the Message
Application Server (MAS).
An Avaya Call Center Elite Package 5.2 provides call routing capabilities
used in an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) environment for Call
Management Services (CMS) for a number of CNM business units
including CNM’s Contact Center.
An Avaya S8800 Application Enablement Server (AES) provides
integration with CCE to provide computer telephony integration.
An Avaya Call Center Express 5.0 (CCE) provides enhanced
features, functionality and integration with the Elucian Banner system for
CNM’s Contact Center.
CNM utilizes Voice Over IP (VOIP) trunking to connect the central S8800
Media Servers to the Media Gateways. This is implemented over nondedicated LAN and WAN trunks using Quality Of Service (QOS) to
ensure voice prioritization.

Multi-pair copper bundles provide inter-campus connectivity from
individual phones to the Media Gateways and G650 Carrier Stacks.
CNM is not utilizing VOIP phones at this time.
External connectivity and PSTN service is established via five PRI trunks
provided by Century Link to the Main Campus and a sixth trunk
supporting the ESS unit at WSC. All 6 ISDN trunks reside within the
same hunt group.
In addition to the PRI trunks, each campus Media Gateway is supported
by a number of basic business phone lines provided by Century Link
ensuring minimal communication capability in the event of a trunk failure
Internal building connectivity is migrating away from dedicated ISP
cabling and being integrated with upgraded structured UTP cabling as
cable plant upgrades occur. This ensures reliable connectivity while
preparing for future VOIP deployment to the desktop.
Traditional backboard mounted 110 blocks provide termination for interbuilding copper bundles. These are then patched into rack mounted
patch panels for internal building distribution in buildings that have been
upgraded to Category 6 cable plants.
MicroTel v.2.8 provides call accounting capabilities.

CNM is in the process of developing the WSDC from its current state as a
Disaster Recovery site to full Business Continuity. As this occurs the role
of the WSDC filers will also change in support of this initiative.
CNM also uses several Dell NX3100 PowerVault Systems for less critical,
high volume storage requirements.
CNM’s storage environment communicates using Ethernet, iSCSI, NFS
and CIFS protocols.
Backup & Recovery
 CNM's primary backup storage device is the NetApp 3240 filer.
 Quest NetVault software is used to archive data directly from the NetApp
FAS 3240 to a Spectra Logic T120 and is used to facilitate archival of
server data from local disk.
 Linear Tape-Open (LT03) tape devices are also in use to support the
migration to central storage and to provide custom backups as needed.
 Critical tape archives are rotated to an offsite facility by Iron Mountain.
 The NetApp filers serve as CNM's primary recovery mechanism. Tapes
stored offsite will be used for recovery in the event multiple NetApp
devices fail.
 CNM is currently re-evaluating its backup environment in regards to the
need for tape.
