xACME– WAN Implementation and Secure Communications (Focus on All Site Entry Point Routers). Required Implementation: WAN Implementation, device authentication, and topology suggestions.

• WAN Implementation: Current WAN links are serial-based and connected over leased lines that are using the Cisco default protocol for layer 2 connectivity. Authentication is not present at this time, but the added security would be preferred. Research the available WAN protocols and suggest a solution to provide authentication between devices. Implement basic routing protocol authentication. Provide a sample implementation over serial links for your systems administrator to follow. Included in this task are device configurations for the current implementation.
• Topology: Currently, the Los Angeles and Boston sites are connected across leased lines, and each remains as the entry point to its respective regional locations. There is growing concern over the amount of traffic both devices are handling. Review the xAMCE educational topology and make recommendations to provide some redundancy among sites, as well as to alleviate some of the bandwidth requirements placed on both devices. This may require additional lines to be leased. With your suggested improvements, update the topology as you see fit.

Note: Additional addressing is available if needed. Simply create the additional ranges from the provided available xACME public address range, 165.128.63.0 /26.
