This report provides a detailed analysis of Local Area Network (LAN) technologies, focusing on their implementation, security, and performance. It begins by evaluating different LAN technologies such as wired (Ethernet) and wireless (Wi-Fi), along with VLANs, repeaters, bridges, hubs, routers, switches, and various cable types like coaxial and fiber optic. The report then critically analyzes traffic-intensive services like VoIP and video streaming, discussing their performance and the importance of Quality of Service (QoS). It addresses LAN concerns related to latency, loss, jitter, bandwidth, and throughput, and recommends strategies for sustaining network security, reliability, and performance, including CIA triad principles, access control lists, and firewalls. Furthermore, the report designs a LAN infrastructure for a three-floor building, evaluating the suitability of LAN components based on availability, security, reboot time, downtime, and temperature fluctuation. It also touches upon security considerations in LAN design and maintenance. The document emphasizes the importance of these elements in creating a robust and efficient network.
