4.1 System Requirements

• Marylands CVISN Prototype Top-Level Design
  Description (APL POR-99-7235) contains a
  comprehensive description of the system
  requirements and design for the States CVISN
  projects. That document also contains the
  completed tables from the CVISN Operational and
  Architectural Handbook (COACH), Marylands
  top-level CVISN physical system designs, system
  interface summaries, and operational scenarios.

4.2 Key Features of Maryland CVISN Design (1 of
2)

• Provide ASPEN laptops to all inspectors.
• Install CVIEW updating periodically as the
  product matures.
• Provide IRP data to CVIEW for snapshots via LSI.
• Add 2 Servers to support the CI, state office
  CATs, and CVIEW, with plans for two more to
  support operational mode
• Implement a CI and CAT, starting with IRP, then
  IFTA.
• Also plan to implement electronic credentialing
  for titling, intrastate vehicle registration, and
  oversize/overweight permitting
• Connect to the IRP and IFTA Clearinghouses
• Develop a WebCAT (for IRP initially)
• Also install the CAT at MVA offices, so that MD
  staff can use the product to enter information
  from paper applications received over the counter
• Use the Regional Processing Center (RPC) for IFTA
  functions
• Use a commercial product for IRP functions
• Put Motor Carrier Handbook on the MD DOT WWW page

4.2 Key Features of Maryland CVISN Design (2 of
2)

• Improve existing connectivity between VISTA/RS
  and MVA to support additional traffic associated
  with IRP between MVA mainframe and MDOT networks
  for access to MVA Legacy Database MDOT networks
  and MD Comptrollers networks for IFTA MVA and
  weigh station facilities for carrier and vehicle
  snapshots MDOT networks and the Internet
  (firewall upgrades, domain name services, etc.)
  for IRP, IFTA, intrastate, Web CAT.
• Install Roadside Operations Computer (ROC) and
  software at West Friendship and at Perryville.
• Subscribe to CVIEW to receive snapshots at West
  Friendship and at Perryville.
• Implement electronic screening at Perryville site
  
• Establish connectivity between CVIEW and West
  Friendship, and between CVIEW and Perryville.

4.3 Maryland CVISN Design Diagrams

• The major information systems components in the
  Maryland CVISN Prototype Program are specified in
  the Maryland CVISN Prototype Top-Level Design
  Description (POR-99-7235). That document should
  be referenced for
• detailed information on system interfaces,
  operational data flows, and software/hardware
  configurations.
• The key elements of the design are extracted from
  the design description and reproduced on the
  following pages. These include
• The MD CVISN System Design Template
• The Design for Carrier-Related Interfaces
• The Design for System Interfaces within the
  State
• The Design for State Interfaces with the CVISN
  Core Infrastructure Systems
• The MD Physical Design for Host Computers and
  Networks
• The MD Physical Design Allocating Software to
  the Hardware Systems
• The MD Physical Design External Network
  Configuration
