Assessment Details

Background

The SISTC recently had gone through a partial renovation. The school has 4 floors. According to new layout the ground floor has a reception room with 6 desks and a lecture hall. The first floor has a computer cluster with 30 PCs, computer laboratory with 20 workstations with computer facility, a lecture hall and five staff offices. The second floor has two research labourites for research and post- doctoral researchers. This floor had 8 staff offices and conference room. All workstations need two data points to get connected to internet. Each floor also requires wireless connectivity to enable the staff and students to get connected to internet.

SISTC requires new LAN architecture for these floors. Imagine you are the network manager of the school and required to write a report with the flowing section:

1. An introduction section to describe the background and outline the report.

2. To discuss interoperability issues for seamless connectivity to each floor, draw OSI layered architecture, discuss the OSI model, its history, the functioning of each layer.

3. Detailed comparison of OSI and TCP/IP models.

4. Explain the protocols working at OSI layers, briefly discuss their functionalities, and identify their standardising bodies

5. This LAN network requires both wired and wireless connectivity. Provide a comparative analysis of appropriateness of different media types which may be used to enable network connectivity. Discuss different types of media suitable for the above scenario with illustrations. Comparative analysis must be recommended in terms of speed, cost, and Security (use table for comparison).

6. A conclusion, summarise the overall contribution.

7. References must follow APA Format.
