Network Design of Calasanz School: A Comprehensive Report (MN503)

This report details a network design for Calasanz School in Colombia, addressing the need for improved wireless coverage to support e-learning and student access. The project scope includes overcoming challenges such as limited staff and the need for a scalable, cost-effective solution. The report outlines a user-centric design concept, emphasizing easy management, future scalability, and the use of subnets to reduce congestion. Hardware requirements, including TP-Link devices like ceiling mount APs, broadband routers, and switches, are specified. The network design incorporates IP addressing schemes and justifications for the chosen architecture, including the division into subnets for various departments. The outcomes of the design include the ability to extend the network, connect multiple wireless devices, and improved user management. The limitations of the design, such as potential signal strength variations and the efficiency of wireless connections, are also discussed. Finally, the report concludes with a summary of the proposed solution and includes a demonstration and bibliography.
