Network Design In this paper I will be going over a network design proposal for a building on the UMUC campus in Adelphi‚ Maryland. I would plan to run a fiber optic network to ensure the fastest speeds possible and fiber optics are notorious for not having any signal loss compared to a Cat5e. Using a star topology throughout the building with the servers in each classroom connected to the server room on the respective floor. Equipment used to build the network will consist of servers‚ routers‚ hubs

Executive SummaryThe objective at hand was to build a network from the ground up. This was accomplished by breaking down all of the sections and building upon all previous assignments. This was a good course as I learned a lot about all of the different sections of building a network. The pros are now I know how to build a network on the design side from the ground up. I learned quite a bit about using a lot of the technologies associated with networking and it allowed me to learn quite a few new

UMUC’s new building in Adelphi‚ MD will have to provide networking connectivity to students‚ professors‚ and staff. In order to begin the process of planning the new network‚ we will begin by planning the network IP addressing scheme. It is very important that the network IP addressing scheme be clearly defined in order for IT administrators to locate computers promptly. Also‚ in order to make it easier for the administrators‚ DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) will be used to assign
