Introduction
This report is about the network design proposal of the ABC technology institution which is
based in America and currently located in the Canberra where there are two campuses that are
within Canberra but they are 2.5 km apart, each campus has occupied different area size and thus
the facilities required for the network implementation will also differ.
The first campus has a total of four blocks that are in area of 1800 meters length and 1200 meters
width and the blocks involved are the IT, physics, chemistry and the library blocks, while the
second campus has a total of three blocks which includes administration office, business colleges
and a library block and they are built within an area of 1300 meters length and 700 meters width.
The management had decided to install the network in order to enable the use of the latest
wireless technology where the users including the students will be able to access the wireless
network using their mobile devices ,more over the administration group will be having the
privilege to access the wireless and the wired network [1].
Below are the various network requirements for the full implementation of the required services.
i. Network to enable the users to access the wireless network.
ii. The network to allow the administration to access the wired and wireless networks.
iii. The network to enable automatic allocation of the IP addresses to the connected
devices using the DHCP server.
iv. The network to be able to monitor the types of materials being downloaded by the
users.
v. The network to be able to report any inappropriate material downloads to the network
administrator.
vi. The network should allow the guests to access the wireless network without any
authentications.
vii. The network requires having adequate security for the logged in users.
viii. The network should be able to accommodate the 6% growth in the number of users in
the coming five years.
