BN202 Internetworking Technologies - Melbourne Institute of Technology
Assignment - Network requirement analysis and plan
Main objective of this assignment is to enable student to understand networking devices, gather requirements for a given business case study and plan a network design.
After successful completion of this assignment, students should be able to:
a) Discuss the significance of internetworking for contemporary organisations.
b) Explain human factors in achieving business and technical goals through planning and design
d) Explain the current and future state of the internetworking infrastructure and its applications.
e) Apply a process to support the administration and management of internetworking.
Part A: Business case study: Network design proposal for Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia
Description
You are a new network engineer at Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia. Melbourne Institute of Technology has two campuses in different ends of city with same structure. Your institute wishes to install a network throughout their lecture theatres, Labs, faculty area, administration Office, and student service areas of both campuses. The institute is becoming aware that the students require Internet access on their laptops and mobile phones during the lectures so the need a wireless connectivity as well.
The institute has its administrative office in the adjacent building with a line of sight view over the windows (open windows). Overall, the staff members are moving continuously, and they need full connectivity and accessibility to the Internet and Data Services.
The network should be divided in a way that traffic for each domain (student, faculty, administration) should be visible within the domain.
Your operational director asks you to report on the best network design that can be used to serve the students during their lectures as well as to support the staff to be connected to the Internet and the data server.
The operational director is aware of the security concerns; therefore, requests you to include security related issues (Login details, Password) for each Login.
Write a report based on the above network requirements, use the following structure to organise your report; and demonstrate switch and router configuration in week 11 laboratory class.
Report Contents
• Project Scope and Goals
• Project requirements (Hardware & Software)
• Detailed Network Design in Packet Tracer which includes
- All switches
- All routers
- VLAN(Virtual LAN)
- VTP(VLAN Trunking Protocol)
- All PCs
• Network device configurations
a. Switch configuration:
- Set IP addresses on PC and switch
- Create VLAN
- Ping each other
- Set VTP domain with your first name
- Set VTP password with your family name
- Demonstrate VTP packets
b. Router configuration
- Set descriptions on interfaces, one with your name, second with your family name, third with your middle name
- Display information about directly connected devices to router
- Setup IP addresses for each interface
- What is the subnet mask did you use?
- Ping all routers.
Part B: Answer the Following Questions
1. Draw a diagram for Internet structure from Tier 1to Tier 3. Also explain the role of Tier 1 ISPs in details.
2. Outline the steps taken by Network designer to design a Network for any business.
3. How the User Cantered Design (UCD) can decided the success and failure of any Design? Give an example that how a poorly designed interface can lead a product towards failure.
