MN621 Advanced Network Design: Human Factors in Network Design T1 2018

This report provides an analysis of advanced network design, incorporating human factors as a key element. It includes a list of questions for users, the sports complex, and staff members to gather requirements and understand their needs for the network solution. The report outlines a step-by-step approach to network development, including analyzing constraints, setting technical goals, budgeting, generating application profiles, building service-based agreements, and monitoring performance. A prototype network is created using Cisco Packet Tracer to simulate and test network functionality, demonstrating the practical application of the design principles discussed. The document concludes with a bibliography referencing relevant sources used in the analysis and design process.

Part 1
List of questions for Users
 What is expected response time that is proposed in the solution of network?
 Various kinds of applications that are mainly installed in the system for the provided network.
 Medium of connection that is mainly preferred for use.
 Types of devices that are available for accessing by the provided network of the organization.
List of question for sport complex
 Number of users involved for making use of provided network.
 Number of departments that should be covered with the provided network.
 Department should be linked with each other.
 Budget that is mainly taken into consideration for the development of various kinds of
solution.
 Network needs any kind of further kind of expansion which is mainly used for providing
growth and support of this organization.
List of question for other staff members of this sport complex
 The ultimate goal of the network
 Various kinds of application which is needed to be installed in the operating system.
 Application needs any kind of internet connection for operating in local area network
(LAN).
 Any kind of requirement is needed for file sharing between various kinds of users that
are mainly connected in network.
Purpose of each and every question

ADVANCED NETWORK DESIGN
The ultimate goal of this question is to make a large number of needs of the project and
understanding the fact that that management and other kinds of staff members for making use of
network solution. This kind of service is mainly required for establishing communication and
improvisation of network based reliability. This can be easily used for interviewing various kinds of
stakeholders that are mainly associated with the project which is used for network solution. For having
proper idea regarding the requirement of the projects a proper list of question has been developed. The
provided question is mainly prepared which mainly focus on various kinds of objectives of the given
project. Questions are mainly kept short for analysing the fact that various kinds of users can easily
complete the question and optimum can kind of results can be easily obtained.
Part 2
From the above case it can be concluded that various kinds of uses and staff members that is
used for availability for proper kind of interview. On the contrary the network should be developed in
list of steps.
Step 1: Proper analysis of constraint and various kinds of technical goals.
It can be concluded by proper kind of brainstorming and various kinds of research on the
present technology that can be applied for the proper development of a network solution. Various aims
and objective of this organization should be taken into fact for various kinds of goals and objective which
cannot be achieved and should be removed on timely basis. Various kinds of research must be done for
list of parameters that’s is configuration, reliability along with different kinds of topology based on
network configuration. Present load in traffic of data should be provided and can be analysed and
improved that must come up with improving the consistency of network. It is mainly used for proper
development of network solution that is mainly provided.
Step 2: A proper kind of budget for the provided project
A proper list of hardware and device for network is mainly prepared for the proper development
of the solution of network. The solution should be provided in excel sheet which is used for addition of
cost and proper estimation of cost. Success of any project mainly depends on accuracy for proper kind of
calculation for the budget of the provided project. Each and every kind of parameter should be
evaluated on regular basis and potential of each and every parameter is mainly taken into consideration.
The information about budget is mainly evaluated by the help of network designers in such a way that it

can provide various kinds of needs of business. The prepared budget is generally unavailable for an
unavailable list can easily result in meeting of various kinds of available needs.
Step 3: Generation of application profile that is mainly related to various characteristic of the
provided network along with its application
It is mainly used for carrying out various kinds of analysis which this service should run in
provided network. It is mainly used for ensuring the fact network engineers for various kinds of support.
Application is mainly developed and be utilized for large number of thing like support for service,
network troubleshooting of various kinds of network problem. It is mainly used for checking various
kinds of goals and objectives for the organization along with provided network configuration.
Step 4: Building up of service based agreement which mainly consist of availability, fault tolerance
Various kinds of factors can easily affect performance of any kind of network and can be easily
implemented for providing the requirements of any project.
Step 5: Analyzing of performance along with standard and availability
It is mainly considered to be important factor that is mainly used for performance of network
and removal of various kinds of constraint in the provided network like losing of packets, congestion and
delay in the provided network traffic.
Step 6: This step is all about collection for proper monitoring of service based agreement
It is mainly used for having proper kind of collection which is used for providing various kinds of
definition and proper monitoring for the success of any project. It is mainly used for analysing various
kinds of service based agreement that is mainly used for having a proper kind of network issue and
having a proper kind of idea that is mainly used for monitoring the level of agreement that is mainly
provided in the network.
Part 3
For proper kind of analysis of network, a prototype of the network has been prepared in
software known as cisco packet tracer, the routers and various kinds of personal system are mainly
configured with the help of IP address. Testing of the network is mainly done by proper sending of data
from the source to the destination. For proper kind communication between the different LAN the
interface of the network should be designed with the help of IP addresses and option of routing.
