Contractor Challenge - 2

Having a plan is key to success. It is far too easy to either:

• Presume that the intention is clear to everyone on the team, when there is likely more ambiguity.
• Presume you will just figure it out on the fly.

These tendencies often lead to suboptimal results.

Develop a plan of attack

Over the next 30 minutes, develop a plan to get every IP address assigned to network infrastructure into DNS. Points of consideration:

• Physical, logical (SVI, loopbacks, etc) interfaces
• NAT IP addresses
• Load Balancer VIP IPs
• What the DNS names format should be
• The continuous synchronization of all entries (to remove IPs no longer used)

The plan can/should include:

• Logical high-level steps to take
• Stubbed out folder structure
• Stubbed out function/class structure
• Access requests you may have

You will present your solution at the end, given 5 minutes to present.
