Preliminaries Description
This is an information communication network proposal intended for the AusEd
Incorporation learning system. Recently the Maryland assembly approved enough funding to

cater for the execution of the proposal (Campbell, 2018). The administration of AusEd
Incorporation has chosen to evaluate the current IT infrastructure to support the increasing need
for improved services for students and the staffs. Financing will be required to execute the
proposal.
System Scope
The suggested network is intended to support the three departments in AusEd namely:
Sales, Operations, and Course Delivery. The Sales department manages marketing and sales
processes. The department is as well responsible for course promotion and managing. Each
regional office has four departments that should be attended. The Courses Delivery department is
in charge of teaching as well as assessment, developing course materials, and learning
management (Roldán Bravo, Lloréns Montes, and Ruiz Moreno, 2017). The Operations
department controls all the main operations like information systems, accounting, and human
resources management. AusEd has about two thousand full time students as well as about a
hundred workers more than 50% of whom operate on part-time, a casual basis.
Network Objective
The proposed network is planned to accomplish numerous specific operational/business
objectives:
1. Safe Service: The fundamental aim of the network system is to offer safe managerial
computing services to the incorporation’s three divisions (Laudon, and Laudon, 2015). It is
planned to be physically and functionally isolated from accessibility by individuals who are
not employees of the AusEd Incorporation education scheme hence minimizing the danger of
illegal use.

2. Update and Integration: Currently there are several LANs (Local Area Networks) in
the company’s learning system, however most of the equipments used are outdated, several
LANs are not compatible with one another, and not linked to system-wide
networks(Hernantes, Gallardo, and Serrano, 2015). This suggestion defines a WAN (Wide
Area Network) that updates and integrates these local area networks to support fruitful
collaboration through the system.
3. Processing of Versatile Data: The network is intended to facilitate users to recover,
process, as well as store non-ASCII as well as ASCII text, video, still graphics, as well as
audios from any linked PC.
4. Collaboration: This network should combine the capabilities and power of different
equipment in the AusEd Incorporation to offer a collaborative intermediate that assist users
to combine their expertise irrespective of their locality (Hernantes, Gallardo, and Serrano,
2015). A system will allow individuals to share ideas and information easily hence they are
able to work more productively and efficiently.
5. Scalability: The network is scalable, therefore more departments can be included when
funding becomes accessible without redoing the fitted network.
Network Design
The key consumers of the design at the company’s level should be the ten members in the
Curriculum Division, three secretaries, three administrators, eight members in the department of
Human Resources, six members in the Accounting/Finance Department, as well as three
members in the Computer Service Division (Ajamieh, Benitez, Braojos, and Gelhard, 2016). At
the regional level the key users should be four secretaries, four administrators, four participants
in the Computer Service Division, sixteen members in the Human Resources Department, as
