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. |

Keys in the Clear
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.
