Assignment - Network requirement analysis and plan
Learning outcome 1: Investigate suitable network designs to match requirements;
Learning outcome 2: Create appropriate frameworks and standards for network implementation;
Assignment 1a
1. Project Scope and report requirements
The project scope and requirement 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.
The following is the scope for Assignment 1a.
• Attach your chosen real world business case study with reference as an appendix A.
• Include points that you have gathered from your chosen case study on their existing network.
• Discuss in a tabular form how the information obtained will be useful in designing the network.
• Discuss the approach you will be taking (include bullet points whenever necessary) to redesign the network.
Assignment 1b
The following is the scope for Assignment 1b.
2. Response to assignment 1a
• It is mandatory that students should demonstrate how they have incorporated the feedback given in assignment 1a. You may use a tabular form whenever necessary.
3. Network design and justification
• Draw a network design that you think will be useful in the future for the industry that you have visited. Network should include the following requirements:
o 4 routers
o 5 switches
o 7 PCs
o 3 VLANs.
• Suitable IP addressing scheme in tabular form (assume as many hosts as necessary for each department). Use your MIT student ID to come up with your own IP addressing scheme (to avoid Academic Misconduct). Justify the choice of IP address.
• 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.
4. Network configuration
Configure your network using Packet Tracer. Write a report on
• Packet Tracer Network diagram- Copy diagram from your simulator
• Switch configuration
• Router configuration
• Host configuration
• Access point and server configuration guidelines.
5. Timeline and Budget estimation
This section should include the followings:
• Hardware requirements with the specification with costs
• Human resources and logistics
• Tentative timeline specifications.
