Task 1
Requirement Gathering
The requirement of the call centre should be identified for the development of the network
solution and the Netsim simulator should be used for the development of the network solution. A
qualitative and quantitative analysis is made on the requirement of the users and the software
needs for the development of the network solution. A meeting must be arranged with the
stakeholders and the quality of the information depends on the success of the network. The creation
of the questionnaires also helps in identification of the needs and it should be shared with the users
associated with the development of the call centre network. The number of users and the floor plan
of the building of the call centre should be analysed for the development of the network framework.
The number of vlans and the Pc required for the connection with the department should be
identified and separate vlan should be created for each of the floor for increasing the efficiency of
the network.
Technique used for collecting requirements
There are different techniques used for the analysis of the requirement such as:
Prototyping – A prototype of the network is created and is shared with the group of users for
identification of the changes in the network plan and develop the final network according to the
needs of the users.
Brainstorming – New ideas and technologies should be identified for the development of the
network. The risk associated with the network should also be analysed for the implementation of
the security features in the network.
Survey – A survey should be made on the current network infrastructure and the upgrades that
should be implemented and the constraints acting on the network should be identified. The needs
for the development of the framework should also be justified and migration to different technology
should also be identified for the preparation of the network solution.
The backup and the recovery time of the network should be minimum and the network
boundaries should also be identified for identification of the hardware needs for the development of
the network solution. The selection of the network protocol is also important for the reduction of
the errors in the configuration and delivering a fully working and secure network solution for the call
centre. The use of redundant link and the VLANs improves the performance of the network and
reduces the effort of management of the network.
