SCHEDULE C

Reports

Standard reports per the RFP are required.

SCHEDULE D

Provider Owned and Operated Network

Dane County gives PROVIDER permission to continue to run its own parallel, PROVIDER-owned and managed network, which will include all network hardware (Routers, switches, proxy servers, modems, etc.) all cabling, bandwidth, wireless access points.

PROVIDER’s secure, wireless tablet network will be completely isolated from the County network. All tablet communications route over an encrypted VPN running on a highly-secure, hidden wireless WPA2 network. Additionally, PROVIDER’s network architecture routes all communication through a PROVIDER Gateway server appliance, which is both a firewall (to limit connections to a designated list of facility-controlled devices and controlled-destination URLs) and a proxy server (to ensure no direct connection to the internet).

To meet network service coordination requirements, PROVIDER will continue to use AT&T as their service provider. Provided, however, PROVIDER may elect to change service providers at its discretion. PROVIDER will keep a continued minimum bandwidth of 100/100 Mbps. To ensure that bandwidth congestion does not become a problem overtime, PROVIDER will keep a minimum of a 100/100 Mbps connection per 200 devices reviewed every 4 months.

PROVIDER will provide COUNTY IT access to monitoring only of the PROVIDER network system. If PROVIDER is unable to provide access to monitoring only, PROVIDER will provide COUNTY IT monthly user usage reports which will include reporting on all wireless networks serviced by Aps installed by PROVIDER.

Any ongoing maintenance issues will be reported to PROVIDER by the Dane County Sheriff’s systems coordinator.

All infrastructure and services will continue to be provided by PROVIDER at no cost and will be completely managed by PROVIDER with no involvement required from the County, apart from those obligations as specified in Attachment B-2, Enhanced Services Service Schedule – IP Enabled Tablets, 6. Tablets, c. COUNTY Obligations.

PROVIDER will install access points (APs) to be owned and operated by PROVIDER in place of COUNTY APs in most of the jail locations.

Due to the nature of wireless communication, existing service provided by Dane County IT has the potential to be impacted or degraded following the installation of the PROVIDER system. COUNTY will work to provide wireless network access for Sherriff staff in key areas, however coverage of the entire jail space by COUNTY APs will cease. COUNTY reserves the right to limit what wireless channels PROVIDER operates on.

PROVIDER will be responsible for all cabling and intra-building fiber deployment. Cable and intra building fiber deployment shall be completed by Integral Building Systems Inc.

(IBS), the contractor required by COUNTY during the installation phase. This includes floor-to-floor fiber runs for distribution in both the CCB (7th to 6th to 3rd floor) and PSB.

PROVIDER will be allowed to use existing copper Ethernet drops for their APs as determined by Dane County IT. If new runs are required to place APs in new locations, the runs will be the responsibility of PROVIDER to have installed using the same contractor COUNTY uses for other projects. PROVIDER will be allowed 2 pairs of single mode fiber to transit between the PSB and CCB Data Center, where the PROVIDER core infrastructure will be housed, provided however, PROVIDER may request permission from COUNTY to use additional fiber should conditions warrant. If COUNTY cannot approve this request PROVIDER will be responsible for building out additional Fiber.

All PROVIDER distribution switches (switches providing network access and power for Wireless Access Points) may be installed in the existing network closets. COUNTY is responsible for providing 2U of rack space per network closet in jail locations and power for PROVIDER equipment related to services provided under the Agreement. COUNTY will provide 6U of rack space in the CCB Data Center for PROVIDER’s tablet server.

These devices are not to be connected to the COUNTY Infrastructure in any way.

When the contract with PROVIDER expires. PROVIDER will abandon the installed infrastructure – fiber or other cabling shall become the property of COUNTY for county use. All PROVIDER installed devices (switches, routers, servers, etc.) will be removed by PROVIDER within 30 days of the contract end date.

The current medical staff will use a network provided by PROVIDER on PROVIDER’s APs that is connected to the existing Charter modem at the PSB. Dane County IT will work with PROVIDER to ensure that this connection functions as expected. Sherriff staff may also use this connection to access COUNTY resources using Entrust over this same internet link. PROVIDER will provide a separate SSID for each network resource -a dedicated SSID for tablets on a PROVIDER provided network and an SSID for Medical staff on a Sheriff provided network. PROVIDER will not throttle these provided network connections through their APs.

PROVIDER and County agree further:

a. County agrees PROVIDER will have to build an interface between the County resources and PROVIDER resources in order to allow access to networks provided by PROVIDER that are serviced by the above charter connection.

County will be responsible for providing resources to work with PROVIDER as needed to build that network. All traffic will be secured using VLANs but will share the same physical infrastructure

b. PROVIDER will provide an independent WPA2 protected Wi-Fi network utilizing

PROVIDER installed equipment within the facility to allow County to transmit data from other County-hosted resources.

c. PROVIDER provides no guarantees that the Wi-Fi network coverage provided to County will be sufficient for the functionality of wireless devices in all facility areas, even when those areas are deployed for wireless coverage by PROVIDER. County acknowledges that wireless signal is heavily influenced by environment: including, but not limited to: walls, doors, windows, stairs, and other building material, electrical components such as microwave ovens, radio communications and other wireless networks and devices.
