Plan a Message Switch Network at a Signal Brigade or Higher
113-324-8001
Conditions: You are in a Signal Brigade S3 environment and must design a message switch network
(EAC, ECB, and Joint). You are given an OPORD, the subscriber requirements, appropriate references,
and the status of switching equipment.
Standards: Accepted the plan for inclusion in the OPORD and the plan supported the communications
requirements.
Performance Steps
1. Determine availability of resources.
2. Coordinate higher and adjacent system interface connectivity;
3. Determine switching equipment interface and connectivity requirements.
4. Determine subscriber (terminal) interface and connectivity requirements.
5. Determine network AUTODIN access requirements.
a. Review TSR.
b. Review TSO.
c. Develop or interpret SAR/GAR.
6. Prepare system diagram, network diagram, and OPORD appendix.
7. Identify user communities (R, U, and Y)
8. Obtain Y routers, TCC and TRC codes.
9. Prepare database.
10. Identify SCIF activation and deactivation requirements/procedures.
11. Determine crypto-key requirements, distribution plan, and crypto-key variable management plan.
12. Develop reconstitution and contingency plan for the network.
