• Six (6) CISCO 1941 Router w/802 11 a/b/g/n (2 ports)
• Five (5) Servers
• Server IBM series 335
• Server HP Proliant DL 360
• Server IBM Series 335
• 2 Windows Servers 12 R2
• Six (6) CISCO ASA 5512-X Firewalls WITH IPS SW 6GE
• Two (2) CISCO ASA 5512 firewalls full licensed with maximum cybersecurity software
• Four (4) Palo alto PA 200 firewalls full licensed with maximum cybersecurity software
• Four (4) CISCO CATALYST 2960-C 2 PORT switches
• About two dozen of different high capability Switches for diverse cybersecurity set-ups
• Iris recognition equipment/software
