The network is divided into several security zones, which are separated from one another by firewalls, and is operated in two data centres at different locations. An aduno® system instance consists of several components, which are functionally separated and installed in virtual machines.

The project focuses in particular on the resilience, transparency and overview of the entire network infrastructure and server landscape. With aduno® Campus Monitoring, not only individual devices but entire communication, infrastructure and service chains are monitored and analysed across multiple sites. The customer’s on-site end-users on the campus are also integrated into the central monitoring system. In addition, the fibre-optic internet connection is monitored both between sites and within individual sites, whilst specialised sensors handle the analysis of 5G networks. Network components and systems from various manufacturers, such as Nokia (including 7750 and XWDM), Cisco, Aruba, Kerlink and Mikrotik are centrally integrated and clearly displayed, enabling the customer to track utilisation and service quality live at all times. Furthermore, virtualised environments based on ESXi hypervisors and Azure cloud servers can be integrated, ensuring that hybrid infrastructures are protected transparently and reliably.

In the future, LoRaWAN networks and private 5G networks are to be integrated. To this end, new use cases are being continuously evaluated so that the system can be flexibly adapted to future requirements.
