IP Architecture
Structured addressing and segmentation that supports growth, operations, and troubleshooting.
- IPv4 planning
- Subnet strategy
- VLAN / VRF segmentation
Network Design & IP Architecture
Network Design & IP Architecture
Good networks start with a clear architecture. ADJ helps translate operational requirements into scalable IP, routing, resiliency, and migration designs.
IP PlanningOSPFBGPSegmentationResiliencyCapacity
Capabilities
Architecture before configuration.
Routing Design
Clear routing domains and resiliency using the protocol and topology appropriate to the environment.
- OSPF
- BGP
- Static / default routing
Resiliency & Capacity
Design decisions based on failure domains, traffic flows, growth, and operational requirements.
- Redundant paths
- Failure-domain review
- Capacity planning

Project approach
Structured from scope through closeout.
1
Requirements
Define technical, operational, budget, and growth requirements.
2
Model
Map traffic flows, dependencies, failure domains, and handoffs.
3
Design
Create the target IP, routing, topology, and resiliency architecture.
4
Document
Deliver diagrams, addressing, migration guidance, and operational notes.
Typical deliverables
Clear outputs for the people operating the network.
| Deliverable | What it includes |
|---|---|
| High-level design | Business and technical objectives, topology, major systems, and design rationale. |
| Low-level design | Interfaces, links, addressing, VLANs, routing, dependencies, and implementation detail. |
| IP address plan | Subnet allocations, gateways, purpose, location, and growth reserve. |
| Migration runbook | Implementation sequence, validation checks, rollback, and post-change verification. |
