One question we often receive is “who will support it”? It is quite typical for us to be engaged by a client and work closely with their preferred support organization, whether internal and external. While we can offer managed services for many solutions we design, it is not required. We are happy to train internal or external resources so that when the engagement is completed, you can self support the solution with your respective support organization.
Here is a list of some the IT Services and Solutions that we offer:
Design & Planning
L4 Networks we can assist your organization in all activities relating to the design and planning of a new infrastructure or the expansion of an existing one. Whether you simply wish to upgrade your LAN, establish inter or intra facility wireless or dedicated links, or establish a virtual private network, we have the experience to get it done correctly the first time.

Wireless
Wireless networks can be tricky to configure, especially when it comes to security. L4 Networks can configure your existing wireless system correctly to ensure security or provide a secure wireless solution that meets your computing needs.
Remote Access
Both small and large organizations are using remote access services to solve telecommuting and road warrior needs. L4 Networks has several solutions that include
- Remote Desktop
- Secure VPNs and corporate LAN access for remote users
- Terminal Services & Desktop Virtualization
- SSL VPNs for controlled secured access
Firewalls/Gateways/Routers
Connecting to the Internet via a network or even single machine without a firewall is like crossing a busy freeway on foot. Yes, you may make it across safely once or twice, but eventually you will get struck. A review our firewall logs reveal an attempt every 3 for seconds by automated machines ("bots") looking for unsecured ports and machines.
We have years of expertise in firewalls, both hardware and software, for large and small enterprises. Fortunately, there are several excellent and inexpensive products which offer superior protection without a degradation of performance.
L4 Networks offers setup, configuration, and troubleshooting support on most vendor's network equipment and software. We are happy to assist you whether or not you purchased your equipment from us.
Unified Threat Appliances
Unified Threat Appliances provide malware control at the edge of your internet by monitoring all Internet traffic. Threats from viruses, worms,and trojans are virtually eliminated. In addition these products offer excellent anti-spam controls and content filtering to limit non work related browsing and or unhealthy websites.
We understand that no one size fits all which is why we are trained in several vendor's products. Call us today to discuss which solution is the best fit for your organization.
Bandwidth Management
Internet based applications have become mission critical. In many of our customer sites, when the internet is down, the business is down
There are many causes for Internet link problems. It can be simply a case of no employee bandwidth policy measures being implemented thus leading to the internet link being saturated with non-business traffic. Or can be a saturated link for very good business use reasons.
We have several solutions ranging from bandwidth policy applications, load balancing, and link bonding (whereby additional inexpensive internet links can be added and bonded together to greater aggregate speed and added redundancy).
Desktop Virtualization
Desktop virtualization moves the desktop from individual use PCs to a central server often running MS Terminal Services or Citrix. By combining these with smart desktop terminals, companies can save a tremendous amount of their IT funds by eliminating desktop maintenance and software. Since the user cannot alter the smart desktop terminal, there is nothing to break. Application upgrades and patches are far easier and more cost effective. They need to be performed only in one place, the server(s) providing the desktop virtualization, not each and every user machine.
Internet Access
We can manage the entire ordering and installation process to get your Small / Medium Business network up and running fast! We can work directly with your provider, provide a turn-key solution, or work in an advisory IT Consultant role.
We just don't talk about IT, we get IT done.SM
