Abstract
Network planning and management in a large organization such as a university, is a complex task. A large university is an inherently demanding environment in terms of telecommunications services offered and technologies used. This chapter presents and discusses network management and planning issues in the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. Examples of network management procedures are given. We present the data model for service provision. The network expansion and cost reduction case studies are discussed. A SWOT analysis about University’s Telecommunications Center is given. Finally, we discuss the migration analysis for future upgrades that will fully enable the use of emerging technologies such as Voice over IP (VoIP).

H.323 is a part of the H.32x series of protocols which also address communications over ISDN, PSTN and SS7. One strength of H.323 was the relatively early availability of a set of standards, not only defining the basic call model, but in addition the supplementary services needed to address business communication expectations.
