Ultra-low latency, fault-tolerant network design for enterprise and telecommunications environments - from physical switching to BGP and SD-WAN at scale.
NGN's network engineering team has spent over two decades designing and managing high-performance, mission-critical network infrastructure across telecommunications, data centres, and enterprise environments.
Whether you're running BGP peering with upstream providers, segmenting a complex multi-VLAN environment, or managing SD-WAN across distributed sites, we deliver architecture that performs under pressure and scales without compromise.
Our team manages physical and virtual infrastructure in managed Colo facilities (Global Switch / NEXTDC), giving you the reliability of carrier-grade hardware with the flexibility of a dedicated engineering partner.
Design and management of BGP peering sessions with upstream providers, traffic steering, prefix filtering, and route optimisation for high-availability internet connectivity.
Comprehensive VLAN architecture for multi-tenant, multi-site, and security-zone environments. Reduces attack surface and improves performance through logical isolation.
Experienced SD-WAN engineering across diverse instances, optimising network performance, ensuring seamless connectivity, and simplifying management across multiple locations.
Comprehensive firewall deployment, configuration, and ongoing management. Secure VPN implementations for remote access, site-to-site, and inter-data centre connectivity.
SAN design, provisioning, and management for virtualisation platforms and high-I/O workloads. Storage performance tuning and redundancy planning included.
On-site rack, stack, and cable management in managed Colo (Global Switch, NEXTDC). Virtual infrastructure spanning VMware, Proxmox, and KVM environments.
Network hardware, software, and protocols we work with daily.
Talk to our engineers about your current environment and what you need to achieve. No generic advice - just practical recommendations from people who've done it before.
At NGN it covers routing and switching design, BGP and multihoming, VLAN segmentation, SD-WAN, firewall and edge security, structured cabling decisions, and storage networking. In practice it is everything between your internet handoff and the port your server plugs into.
Common signals: adding a site or a floor requires re-planning addressing; you cannot segment a network without breaking something; outages take hours to locate; or nobody can produce a current diagram. Those are structural problems, and more hardware rarely fixes them.
We work with what you have wherever it is capable of doing the job. Replacement gets recommended when equipment is out of vendor support, cannot be patched, or is the actual cause of the problem, and we will say which of those applies.
Yes, and the first thing we check is whether your links share physical infrastructure, because two services from two providers frequently run through the same fibre and the same exchange. Genuine redundancy means BGP with your own address space over independent physical paths.
Yes. Multi-site routing, site-to-site VPN, SD-WAN overlays and centralised policy across offices are standard work for us, including sites in different states and mixed carrier environments.
