Introduction


The Internet/WAN flexible asset is used to capture key information to connect with the ISP in times of service degradation or outage, or for billing updates.

Preparation


  • Load the network attached devices in the client environment as configurations.

  • If multiple clients are serviced by a single ISP, capture the vendor's contact information in a central place. For more information, see Vendors.

  • Create a document with procedures for a fall-back internet connection, if present. Consider this question: If there was an after hours internet outage at the client site, are there any other procedures that should be documented?

  • Ask for a recent invoice to get some account details that you will need to enter.

Instructions


  1. Navigate to the organization you are onboarding.

  2. Click on Internet/WAN in the left sidebar and then on the + New button in the top-right corner.

  3. Complete as many fields as required including any technical details that you need for troubleshooting. Then, click Save.

  4. In the right-hand side panel, complete each of the below:

    • Attachments - Attach a copy of the invoice you requested above.

    • Embedded Passwords - Add the client's ISP login credentials.

    • Related Items -

      • Add the LAN and any VLAN/subnets that you created with the LAN flexible asset.
