hi quashem,
typically - standard small to medium ISP system (excluded routing & switching part) maintenance will be focused on these areas :
- radius server - the most important part for remote access connection & billing system.
- bandwidth management - providing QoS
- ip assignment : DHCP and scopes.
- name lookup : at least 2 DNS servers and zones (current issue is DNS poisoning)
- messaging : one or more clustered mail servers and domains (spam handling, relay)
- www : if your ISP run www hosting service (that will also include messaging & file transfer etc).
- databases & replications
- backups & restores
- creating & reading the severs performance/LOG
- DMZ and intrusion detection/prevention (you need to work together with your network engineer to build/maintain this)
- etc
i think there are a lot more to do - but enough to make us busy all the time
HTH.
