Recommendations
| Recommendation | Details |
|---|---|
| Core network is current | The Fortinet firewall, switch, and access point are under FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard for 3 years and are monitored by Vicinity. |
| Internet resilience | The office runs on a single DSL circuit with no automatic failover. A backup connection would protect field and office staff during provider outages. Options can be scoped on request. |
| Retire or replace legacy storage | The QNAP TS-212 and Synology RS214 are older devices used as backup targets. Pair their retirement with the server backup plan. |
| Document and monitor remaining rack equipment | Bring the older switches, UPS units, and the shop switch into monitoring or remove them if unused. |
| Shop connectivity | The shop network is not yet visible to monitoring. A managed switch or access point there would extend coverage. |
