Network Infrastructure Design and Implementation for Medical Center

This project provides a comprehensive network design proposal for a medical center, focusing on improving network performance, security, and scalability. It addresses the current network limitations, proposes upgrades to enhance bandwidth and data transmission, and integrates cloud services for improved accessibility and data storage. The project includes a detailed disaster recovery plan to mitigate potential network disruptions and a business continuity plan to ensure uninterrupted operations. It also emphasizes the importance of network security, including traffic monitoring, authentication, and authorization, and the need for future expansion. The proposal also addresses the need for increased network efficiency and the use of fog computing to enhance network speed. References to relevant research are also included to support the proposed solutions.

Introduction
The scope of this project is to evaluate the current
IT network of given medical center and come up
with ideas and views on how to improve the
network due to increased number of users .The
network is also to be expanded to new branch that
will be opened in Auckland with the ability to
expand in the coming years. This is proposal
explains several procedures ,equipment's and
techniques that will be used to improve the
network to the current state and make it flexible
for future development.

Overview of
the project
 The aim of this project is to design network for
medical center that will have the current
technologies and ability to be expanded for future
use.
 The network is meant to a have some extra
functionalities the will enable communication of
individuals between different sites in the following
ways.
 Have two sites to enable communication.
 Enable teleconferencing and booking between sites.
 Appointments to be accepted or declined by the
doctors in the sites.
 Staff to visit different pages.

Objective of
the projects
 The following are the objectives of this project.
 Implementing fog computer services to increase
network speed.
 Optimizing the network system to provide the best
service to the end users.
 Addressing the need of cyber to increase network
efficiency.

Justification
 Due to increased network usage at the medical
company. Expansion of the network will be more
necessary and enable more customers to connect
to the same network
 This will increases the way people will exchange
information thus best communication among
patients and the two branches.

Existing
network
The following are some of the features of the
existing network.
The current network connection in the medical
center using Macintosh computers has low
bandwidth thus low connection and internet
access.
The network also can face security risks because
the network most of its ends are not encrypted.

Network
upgrade  The above shows the proposed network diagram
that will be implemented the medical center.
 The network will have high bandwidth for high
transmission of data in the network.
 The network is connected to cloud for data
storage for easy communication between the
branches.

Disaster
recovery
plan
To avoid any problems in the network the following
measures will be implemeneted strictly.
 Traffics in the network will be monitored
concurrently to identify attacks.
 Graphs will be kept in order to identify IP
addresses that may cause attacks
 Authentication and authorization will be used in
managing equipment's.
 Scanning of the servers regularly to monitor the
network

Business
Continuity
plan
 The number of users will be increasing day due to
increased usage of mobile phones.
 Implementation of cloud services will easy
communication since day can be accessed from
any point.
 Cloud services will increase the speed in which
data will be processed and transferred within the
network

Conclusion
 Networks that have good design and layout are
the best. Before implementation of any network
security features have to be considered first
before anything else. Also before implementing a
network room for expansion should be considered
to avoid reconfiguring the network when there is
need for expansion.
