BN321 Advanced Network Design Page 2 of 4 Prepared by: Mr. Naveed Dilber Moderated by: Dr. Imran Jokhio, July 2018 Assignment description In this project you are required to design a network for an IT College that has recently leased a building in Melbourne CBD with the aim of offering IT related courses to its students. Upon initial planning, you have identified that there are 400 users in the college, 300 users in building 1 and 100 users in building 2. Every building has a spacious lobby for users which is 200 meters open space where wireless access is required. Only authorized users should have the access to this wireless network. Distance between these college buildings is 500 meters. A high speed internet connection is required which needs to be shared among the users. Selection of appropriate standards and technology for network implementation plays a vital role in this project. Building 1 has four computer labs and building 2 has three computer labs. Each lab uses 35 computers. Each lab will also have a server in the closet located inside the lab. IP phones are located in each lab to communicate to service desk. The IT Institute also wants to setup four classrooms, each containing one computer which requires internet connectivity. Your task is to come up with a logical, efficient and scalable network design that will be suitable for this institute. The institute has allowed an adequate budget to purchase any networking devices that may be required, yet obviously does not want to spend more than necessary. In addition, industryspecific standards must be used and apply to IT infrastructure and services. Write a report and include: 1. Build a document giving all the necessary network designs (enough information should be provided that will allow any technician to build your network structure from scratch). 2. Simple IP addressing solution (step by step workout of the calculations) that leaves room for growth, is easy to administer and has the minimum wastage of available IP address space. 3. Write configurations of each networking device which are included in the network. 4. Configure two switches and two PCs on physical networking devices and demonstrate the working model. Demonstration: Students should be ready with all setup and configurations before start of the laboratory class. Tutor will ask 3-5 questions to each student to demonstrate any configuration of the setup. Demonstration from each student should not be more than 5 minutes.

INTRODUCTION 
Network design plays a major role in the mode of communication that happen data to day life because if we design the network wrong it could lead to a decrease in the performance of the workers. For example, we build an IP phone on the second floors and people on the first floor could not able to use the IP phone. After the implementation of the network, it is very hard to change the infrastructure. We are processing a design to the college to provide the optimal performance of the day-to-day task could be achieved. We have the requirement for building the network system, two building with 2 floors each is separate from a distance of 500 meters.
PROJECT SCOPE 
The goal of the project is to design a network design for a college where two building is separated by each other with the distance of 500 meters. Many colleges are in the yield of developing, people are searching a way to get the work done through communication and some other thing which can be worked with the help of the computer like taking backup of the data and transferring the information from one place to another. The main problem with the university is the amount of money they are investing in implementing the network. Therefore, we are designing the network so that we can’t weak the design if the system is not satisfying the requirement. This project will give a low-cost solution for the college to get the thing up and running when the college needs such a requirement.
Capacity 
The performance of the design will be tested to the limit when the user gets connected to the network in a college. There might be N number of people who are trying to get access to the network and accesses the networks too withstand all the usage of the network. At the same time the hardware and the design will be predicted then the network should be calculated for the rate of failure that might happen when of the usages crosses its limits, the estimated design should come with the ratio of 1:2 for reducing the delay and rate of failure.
Reliability 
The network should be always available and it should run 24x7 because of the people demand.             The components are chosen from the Cisco company because of this we know the hardware device is capable of supporting the unpredictable usage of the network. One of the most important factors is the security because we don’t know at which time a hacker might try to steal the data from the university. We are using high-end devices like the firewall, IPS and IDS system to keep the attacker away from the secured data. Each computer is interconnected with the router and switches and each of the computers is secured by having the latest antivirus software and there should be always backup server which is used when something goes wrong. 
Challenges / Constraints 
Every design in the network will have its own constraints, the main issue will be the budget if the network is widespread.
