Introduction
Information and communication network technology developments have changed
individual’s lifestyle in several aspects. LAN and WAN are widely used in computer
network, play more and more important role in sports complex design. Design of the sports
complex seeks to improve the advantage of ICTs i.e. information and communication
technologies, with new innovation available at every time [1]. At the same manner, network
design developer needs to gain and understand the needs and requirements of users,
management and other staffs members. Thereby the present report is mainly deals with the
designing an effective network design for sport complex through evaluation of the
requirements of users, administrators and staffs members.
Development of the questionnaires to gather needs from
User’s requirements are needed for any project mainly designing the network for sports
complex. A better user requirement procedure helps the organization to execute project in
successful manner and very less chance to project fails. In order to design successful network
planning and designing for sports complex survey methods implemented that helps them to
find out the needs or requirements in successful manner [5]. User’s requirement mainly
includes the functional and non-functional requirements. In the development of
questionnaires methods management and staffs members are included that provide the
requirements for sports complex.

Purpose of the each question
From the findings and analysis of the information through questionnaires methods, it is found
that the information that is collected through data collection methods is adequate to design an
effective and user-friendly network for sport complex. From the user’s perspective it is found
that the network design has an ability to access multiple devices at a time and protect their
information in successful manner. Moreover, user’s requirement reveals that they can access
the network through its mobile or portable devices. From the management point of view it
can be found that the design system is password protection and needed to better monitor

devices. Moreover, from the staff’s point of view it can be seen that they needed to wireless
devices and they also concerned with that data protection. From the questionnaires methods it
can be found that the uses main requirements is that system is able to handle multiple users at
a time and also has an ability to access information through portable devices. Therefore from
the evaluation and findings it is seen that in order to design network in more successfully
manner, network designer needs to focus on this requirements. The findings and analysis
shows that in order to attacks customers as well as enhance the performance of the sports
complex network design, network designer needs to incorporate an effective design approach
as well as also focused on that it is ease of use and attractiveness.
Technical requirements
From the findings and analysis, the technical requirement of the network for sport complex is
illustrated in below;
Technical requirements
Hardware
Software
Server
Internet connectivity
Computer, PCs, portable devices and laptops
Router, switch and wireless routers
Network requirements and protocols
Network requirements
System up gradation
Addition of new devices
Up gradation of the network infrastructure
Mitigation of different or new protocols and technologies

Verification and validation of sports complex design plan
Verification of the data is a way of ensuring the users requirements in other word; it would
help the organization to make sure that network designer does not make any mistake while
executing the project. Validation procedures mainly includes that what the user’s needs to
input. Validation methods is mainly ensuing the input information to ensure it conforms to
data needed to the system to reduce data error [5]. Verification and validation of the data is
most vital tasks for network designer. After successfully collection of the information
through user, management and staffs members, the information is submitted from various
stakeholders of the organization. This procedure not only helps to verify the information in
successful manner but also helps to improve increase the performance. Inappropriate
information would lead the performance and poor decision [2],[4].
Network design along with application of protocols
The main objective is to provide an effective and use friendly network design for sports
complex which helps the users to access information and internet services in successful
manner. Designing sports complex networking design is presently largest closed loop system
in information technology and networking era, continuously increasing several nodes [6]. The
following table shows that the application requirements of the network design for sports
complex.
Required no Application
Name Automatic backup service provision
Explanation The present network design is planned in such a manner that automatically
helps the organization to store the backup system of information. Backup
service provision in sports compel network is done on demand and without
any human action.
Rationale Implementation of this technique helps the organization to secure information
and data in successful manner.
Success
criteria
After receiving information from the server, devices automatically stored the
past data into other database system.

Type Functional
Severity Essential
Name Collective supports
Explanation The network for sports system should be provided the mechanism to support
collectively commutation operators including broadcast, multicasts and
barriers.
Rational Collectively commutation helps the organization to solve issues in better
manner.
Success
criteria
Switches should be provided for collective
Type Fucnaitonal
Severity Preferred
In order to execute the network in successful manner Star topology network is selected in
present project. The main benefit associated with the project is each node is easily access the
information from the server [7]. The network design of sports complex is illustrated in
below;
The present network i.e. sport network complex implements EIGRP i.e. enhanced interior
gateway routing protocols. The main purpose of the implementation of this protocol in
present network is that it provides automatic routing decision as well as configuration.
EIGRP protocols are mainly utilized on routers and share with other routers in same network.
Apart from that, the network also implements RIP protocol that helps to transfer the
information between routers in effective manner [4]. RIP routing protocols implementing
distance routing methods as well as calculate hops between one to other destination. The

main benefit of the implementation of this protocol in present network is that it automatically
sent information to all other routers and higher network throughput. The main application of
RIP protocol is that it required less work for administrator. In addition to this, RIP support
load balancing as well as loop free.
Conclusion
From the evaluation and findings it is seen that in order to achieve or design an effective
network for an organization it is most vital to determine the user’s expectation from the
network. Moreover the findings also show that star topology helps the users to access
information in ease manner. From the discussion it can be observed that implementation of
the RIP protocols as well as EIGRP protocols within the network helps the organization to
send information from one routers to other routers in successful manner.
