Summary
The purpose of this report is to analyse the network requirements of Talon Textile Fasteners
(TTF) and suggest an upgraded network design that meets the demands of the expanding
business. The report starts by summarizing the requirements in a requirements specification
table and proceeds to suggest the upgraded network design while also mentioning the IP
address related specifications. Then the components of the active directory are explained by
talking about the Sites, Organizational Units and Groups where added focus is given on role
of users with respect to the organizational units and domains. Thereafter the server layout and
role are discussed and various project specific documents like sign-off, task list and test plan
are given. Then the report lists the maintenance plan and discusses about router and server
specifications afterwards. The report then ends with conclusions drawn from the study.
