PC hardware and network management
Network management is the control, monitoring, and coordination of all (distributed) resources (data networks, processors, data, and applications) that enable communication in a computer network.
Task: Identification of IT infrastructure requirements
Based on an existing organizational structure, communication and information system infrastructures suitable for supporting it efficiently are to be derived.
ARIS support: The requirements of the information systems' structure can be depicted using the network topology model type. The representation of application systems, network types, and hardware components does not show individual, identifiable specimens (for example, PC with inventory number 3423), but typifications based on the same technology.
Task: Documentation of IT infrastructure
The task is to depict an existing or planned installation of an IT infrastructure with specific hardware components, networks, and application systems.
ARIS support: An IT infrastructure can be illustrated using a network diagram as a concrete implementation of a network topology.
Task: Access privileges
The task is to demonstrate which applications and users have access to which data and in which way.
ARIS support: The access diagram can be used to describe which applications or application modules are allowed what kind of access (write/read/change) to databases and information carriers, and whether the data acts as input or output. Furthermore, it can depict which user privileges and views specific users or user groups have for the applications or application modules.
