Each DC and branches of CBM and FIs are connected through the WAN network
provided by a local network carrier, Myanmar Post and Telecommunications
(hereinafter MPT).

In each location of DC and CBM branches, devices and cables will be redundant to
minimize downtime in case of a hardware failure.
Some multiple devices are virtually integrated as a single device to enhance the level
of redundancy and reduce the management workload. On the other hand, some
devices are virtually divided to function as multiple devices to utilize the resources
efficiently and reduce the number of physical hardware devices. For example, a
firewall, load balancer, and core L3SW are shown as single pairs at each DC site in
the diagram above. However, in the logical view as follows, they appear multiple
times as multiple devices with different roles.
