Assessment Title : Network requirement analysis and plan
Purpose of the assessment
This assignment is designed to assess students’ knowledge and skills related to the following learning outcomes:
a. Investigate suitable network designs to match requirements;
b. Create appropriate frameworks and standards for network implementation;
Assignment Description
Case study scenario: Use an industry case study of your PBL exercise
Project Scope: Write project scope herewith.
Report requirements: The report should have a detail explanation of the planning and designing of a network. It is recommended that bullet points are included whenever necessary. Use your Problem Based Learning (PBL) tutorial findings.
1. Project Scope and requirements
Attach evidence of an industry visit as an appendix A: Industry visit evidence
Include points that you have gathered from an industry professional on their existing network.
2. Network design and justification
Draw a network design that you think will be useful in future for the industry that you have visited. Netwrok should include the following requirements as a miminum:
o 4 routers
o 6 switches
o 20 PCs
o 3 VLAN.
Suitable IP addressing scheme in tabular form (assume as many hosts as necessary for each department).
Indicate where do you use static routing, dynamic routing protocols (name the protocols, RIP, EIGRP, OSPF etc.), Access Control List (ACL) as per the network preferences. Justify your choices.
3. Network configuration
Configure your network using Packet Tracer. Write report on Packet Tracer Network diagram - Copy diagram from your simulator
Switch configuration
Router configuration
Host configuration
Access point and server configuration guidelines.
4. Timeline and Budget estimation
This section should include the followings:
Hardware requirements with the specification with costs
Human resources and logistics
Tentative timeline specifications.
5. Demonstration
Individual demonstration of packet tracer in Week 7.
Mandotory to demonstrate work-in-progress demonstration in week 5 and 6.
