Management of network connections and equipment

Setting up a customised, high-performing, and secure computer network

Challenges

A computer network is essential for the development and productivity of any company or institution. By allowing different computing equipment, such as computers, printers, or servers to connect with each other, the network allows for a continuous exchange of quantities of data. This exchange is often not only done within a local network but with other networks, including the internet, such as during the consultation of websites or sending of e-mails.

In order that this exchange be carried out as smoothly as possible, network equipment and configurations need to be customised to the needs of its organisation, which may turn out to be a challenging task.

Establishments connected to the Luxembourg research and education network benefit from a range of network management services. On request, the Restena Foundation offers:
