Networking

With over 15 years of experience in an enterprise environment, we have all the experience you'll need for your projects. We know how to solve tough problems.  We have engineers with experience in large multi-campus, 50+ IDF backbone networks, as well as engineers that support 100+ physical and virtual server environments.  We are often called in to fix the most challenging server, network, and SAN problems.

Network Engineering

We understand that networking is the most important portion of any information technology infrastructure.  Our engineers have built complete enterprise networks with core routing/switching, distribution layer routing/switching, and access layer switching.  These networks have all the common enterprise components such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, content switches, network monitoring systems, traffic shaping, and integrated storage networks.

Network Troubleshooting

Feel like you have an impossible-to-solve networking issue? No problem! We love a challenge! Our engineers are eager to investigate packet captures, debug logs, and analyze them to find the root cause of problems.

Network Monitoring

Pivcon will install a top-notch open source network and system-monitoring infrastructure that provides you with problem alerting, logging, and performance/usage trending graphs. This information is imperative for identifying problems early and getting them fixed before they snowball into larger problems. We utilize a number of free open source software packages and configure them specifically for your environment. In most cases, our turnkey implementation offering will cost significantly less than just the licensing cost of a comparable commercial product.
