One-Stop Customer System for Government Services in Macedonia
The need for faster links and implementation of private cloud infrastructure lead Central Register to Allied Telesis.
In 2001 the Central Register was established as a central database for all relevant legal information in the business area of Macedonia.
The Macedonian Government has adopted a one-stop system for customer services in order to simplify the registration procedures and create a better economic environment.
A Faster Network was Needed
The customer has two locations; the second one serving as the disaster recovery location. The scope of this project was to upgrade the existing technology of the core and access network segment.
Creating a Redundant Path
The original network comprised two core switches, one on the primary site, and one on the disaster recovery site location; each acting as routers for the internal VLANs. All the aggregation stacking switches were placed in the main office and connected to the core switch. All routes were applied on the core switch in order to obtain a redundant path to the secondary location through Metro Ethernet and/or VPN.
It was quite a challenge for the Allied Telesis team to prepare a solution that fit all the criteria, taking account of performance/price ratio. With the help of our local partner, we succeeded in delivering the best solution and overcoming the competition.

A Clear Choice
The Allied Telesis solution was chosen over the competition because its 10G infrastructure integrated with cloud on the Microsoft platform; and the Allied Telesis Autonomous Management Framework™ (AMF) technology, which enabled the Central Register infrastructure team to set up their own open source firmware platform and Network Management System (NMS) for easy management and monitoring of their network infrastructure.
