Workgroup Computer Network2Scenario: A charity organization is planning to shift from standalone computers to an integratedworkgroup network. This goal requires a series of requirements to be fulfilled. Requirements were gathered from three different organizations that have sound experience indesigning, building and installing networks. Company 1 Company 1 handles network designing project. They have been in the industry for several years.They have given the charity organization a simple network layout.Network Specification:The project should revolve around industrial network standards. It should have new technologiesand strategies. The workplace can rely on standards based IP network. All these componentsshould be located within an ICT controlled environment. Few other critical requirements wouldbe as follows:1)The company should have a configuration library that allows scalability. Logical andphysical network layouts should be designed. The components must be connected to forman entire system. 2)There should be connections between storage networks and IP network spaces. Detailsabout cabinet racking, fiber optic connections and copper RJ-45 cables should beidentified. Details of all devices that make up the system should be identified. Thisincludes dependencies in the system. 3)The network must have authentication services, SAN storage, secure firewalls and datafeed/links for HR information. Along with all network infrastructure and hardwaredetails, the following should be mentioned:

Details of howresilience will be guaranteed for the system should be identified. This includes the followingoptions:1)Load balancing of multiple servers2)Availability of multiple services in HA clustered environments3)Dual attachment of services or servers4)Business continuity and disaster recovery methods5)Identification of single point failures (eg authentication faults) 6)Consideration of load requirements, peak period usage of services and anticipated growthImportant Factors to be remembered: While designing the network, details of maintenanceshould be covered. The warranties of product or contracts must be tracked. Likewise, engineersshould be aware of how network maintenance requirements would be met. Company 2Company 2 has been in the industry for several decades. They have handled many smallworkplace projects. Network Specification:Company 2 strongly believes that to design a small workplace network system for the charityorganization, engineers must decide on the scale of the network. They should figure out if LAN
