INTRODUCTION
Data communication can be defined as the communicating through data from place to
another with the help of networking through the use of internet. It basically means that sharing or
exchanging of data among different branches of an organization (Hu, Guo, Yi, Baker and Lan,
2018). Organization chosen here is the Zoo, they have to establish the networks for better
management and operations of their offices at different location so that they can communicate
easily and comfortably. They decided to establish the LAN (Local Area Network) for their
operations. The following discussions are made on the benefits of the networking in the zoo,
establishing the local area network of the zoo, foreground services and background services of
the zoo, security issues of networking and preventive measures for the same with proper findings
and conclusion in context of the zoo.
MAIN BODY
Task 1
Benefits of local area network in Zoo
Resource sharing
It is one of the benefit of local area network in zoo that is the resource sharing which
means that zoo is benefited with the sharing services of the networking, they can use the
hardware and software devices from one place to another on a shareable basis which can save
time and energy of the zoo.
Software application sharing
It is an another benefit of local area network in zoo that is the software application which
means that it can be possible for the zoo that to install the software application on one systems
but it can be usable with other systems as well (Lu, Zhang, Hu, Yi and Lan, 2019)
Easy and cheap communication
It is also the one of the benefit of local area network in zoo that is the easy and cheap
communication which means that operation with the networking is easy and cheap as it renders
the communication over the networks in a comfortable manner with low cost benefit.
Centralised data
1

It is also an another benefit of local area network in zoo that is the centralised data which
means that zoo can store the data and information on the central system for better security and
also it gives the facilitations of storing, retrieving, deletion and modifications of data.
Data security
It is one of the benefit of local area network in zoo that is the data security which means
that data and information which is stored by the zoo on the central system over the network is
secured and safe from being hacking or loosing it, so basically it proves prevention of data from
spoiling it.
Internet sharing
It is an another benefit of local area network in zoo that is the internet sharing which
means that zoo is benefited because of the sharing of the internet from place to another branches
of the zoo in order to share so many things over the network along with the internet which makes
the management of the zoo more efficient (Hu, Yi, Guo, Lan and Zhang, 2018)
Good speed
It is also the one of the benefit of local area network in zoo that is the good speed which
means that zoo can perform their management and operations in a very good speed which makes
them potential working in the offices by the employees.
Cost effective
It is also an another benefit of local area network in zoo that is the cost effective which
means that zoo is benefited with the cost saving as there is very low cost required to install and
maintain all such networks and can invest that saved cost in some other productive thing.
Easy set up
It is one of the benefit of local area network in zoo that is the easy set up which means
that if zoo thinks to establish the networking then they can easily go for it because it is easy to set
up and manage which not only saves time and energy but cost as well (Akhtar and Ergen, 2018)
Maintenance is easy
It is an another benefit of local area network in zoo that is the maintenance is easy which
means that technology requires updates and maintenance from time to time for proper safety and
security and therefore, it is necessary to maintain which is easy so zoo can easily establish the
networking from installation to the maintenance function of it.
