Introduction
• The network is designed for OZ Dispatcher for connecting
the 20 distribution and collection centre of the company
with the companies head quarter in Parramatta office. For
the development of the network a wireless access point is
needed to be installed in the distribution centre and a
network design is created for the demonstration of the
network devices needed for management of the
communication. For the development of the network
design a client server architecture model is followed.

Assumption
• For the development of the network solution the following
assumptions are made:
• The network and system engineer would have basic
knowledge about subnetting and IP addressing.
• They should also have basic knowledge of routing and
understanding of the support of protocols and
configuration of Cisco routers and switches.

Justification
• For each of the distribution and collection centre a router is used for
it is connected with each other via serial link. The network design
follows the client server architecture model such that each of the
transactions of the server is fulfilled by a request made by the client.
A local wireless access point is installed in the network for enabling
the delivery staff to select the customer order and delivering to the
customer. The efficiency of the network is improved by aligning the
business and technical goals of the organisation. The network is
designed for management of traffic flow and enabling communication
between the different distribution centres

Conclusion
• It can be concluded from the presentation that a design is
created for the OZ dispatch for connecting all the
collection and distribution centre that are distributed in
the areas of NSW to connect with Parramatta Office. The
design of the network is created following the
requirement of the distribution centre and a local server is
installed for the management of authentication and
authorization of the user and improve the network
security.
