After you have a firm set of requirements, focus on design. This
determines how you\'re going to satisfy requirements with least
cost. The design should fully describe what components and
configurations are necessary to satisfy the requirements.
Through the design process, produce a design specification that
highlights the chosen design elements and provides a diagram
indicating the placement of access points within the facility.
For smaller networks you may only spend a day or so designing
the solution. In larger implementations, it may take weeks or
months to fully define enough technical detail before moving
forward with the acquisition of hardware and installation
services. These larger projects will likely benefit from
simulation, prototyping, or pilot testing as part of the design
to ensure you\'ve made the right choices and the requirements
are fully realizable. |

In a typical SSL installation, the server maintains credentials so
that clients can authenticate the server. In addition to presenting
a certificate at connection time, the server also maintains a
private key, which is necessary for establishing that the server
presenting a certificate is actually presenting its own certificate.
Cryptographic-acceleration cards will generally store the key in
hardware, making it unavailable to the actual computer.
