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. |

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. After you
