Assignment
Objectives
In this assignment you are required to design a network for a typical company that requires its computers to communicate with each other and on the internet.
Company Requirements
A new education center has just opened up with the aim of offering IT related courses to its students. It aims to provide student labs, provide computers for its education and administrative staff and also set up a web server. The company has just purchased one T1 connection providing 1.5Mbps for upload and download. It has also purchased the 193.188.34.128/24 network from its ISP.
In terms of network infrastructure, the Centre has the following plans:
• It wants to setup one web server to host the center’s website and also one file server on which its students can access course materials. Each of these will be allocated a different DNS name.
• The Centre wants to set up two computer labs, each containing 15 PCs with each having internet connectivity.
• Additionally it wants to allocate 7 PCs, each of which will be placed in different classrooms and are to be used by the course tutor. These PCs also require internet connectivity.
• 2 PCS will be given to the system administrator, with the facility to provide any type of Internet services on them.
• Also 5 PCs will be made available for administration and another 3 for tutors. Please note that management has decided that these PCs should not get internet connectivity but should still be able to access the web and file server.
• And finally a wire-less network should be made available to students which can allow students internal access to the file and web server but not to the internet.
Your task is to come up with a logical, efficient and scalable network design that will be suitable for this centre. You have to subnet the given network address according to the requirement. The company has allowed an adequate budget to purchase any switches and routers that may be required, yet
