AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING A CONTRACT FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE CORE NETWORK SWITCHES IN THE CITY

City Manager Gipson reported that the City’s fiber network switching has surpassed its useful life of 10+ years. To stay supported by the manufacturer and ensure we are utilizing best practice network protocols, we must upgrade and replace all the equipment. Funds have been set aside for these purposes in the Equipment Replacement Fund. Staff has analyzed our options and have decided on a platform through HPE Aruba that will utilize network protocols to provide better insight, redundancy, and predictability over the City’s fiber network. The proposal includes network switching equipment, management software, and professional services for the implementation of the network. The professional services are at a reduced amount as staff plans to assist and learn along the way. This project is within budget in the Equipment Replacement Fund.
