INDP, Kudler Fine Foods-Final Paper
A network is defined as computer components such as hardware, assorted cables, and fiber optics, networking equipment used to link a company’s computers so that they can assign files, printers, software, and additional computer-related assets across short and long distances.
Kudler Fine Foods is a specialty and gourmet food company with the home office in La Jolla, CA and two other facilities in Del Mar, CA and Encinitas, CA. The Founder wanted to link all three locations from the home office. Due to recent economic development and overall business success at each of the three locations, the founder future projection was that she would be adding numerous new locations over the next two years. The Founder required an assessment of the network layout to support the combining of the current three facilities and future expansion. Currently there are three network diagrams for the KFF; we need to link the stores in Del Mar and Encinitas to the home store in La Jolla, CA. First, we must identify the Network components required in the Network diagram layout. The current network Topology isn’t set-up effectively or cost efficiently to operate the growing and successful KFF stores. It requires several network, software and system upgrades that would add to the growth of the company.

    With only three stores, their company is structured with only a few departments: Administration, consisting of Finance & Accounting, Sales & Marketing, Human Resources, Operations, and Information Technology. With only three locations, Kudler does not need an extensive organization. They currently have a Bus Topology implemented that does not allow the stores to communicate with each other. The networks are separate and if a network server goes down, there are not any backups or securities set up. The ability to communicate wirelessly will give Kudler some mobility and will allow the locations to be centralized. The La Jolla and Del Mar locations each have a Novel 4.11 Server for POS as well as a UPS-Standalone tower, a bublejet printer, and a 56k modem. Their six computers are hooked up to a 10.1.50.0 Ethernet Network and all systems use the Ethernet Network to hook on to the Internet. The Encinitas location has a Novell 4.11 Server for POS as well. Their location is a bit smaller with only three computers. Their network includes a 56k modem and Internet.…
