this is a group assignment where we have to design a network from small to medium enterprise. there are several parts categorised like introduction, executive summary where as mine is NO. 03 BUSINESS AND TECHNICAL GOALS, and NO. 5 &6 i.e. HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT AND CONCLUSION.so you have to do my part of assignment NO. 3 , 5 AND 6 ONLY
