Higher National Certificate/Diploma in Computing Assignment Brief Student Name/ID Number Unit Number and Title 2: Networking Academic Year 2021 Unit Tutor Mr. M I M Irshad Assignment Title Network Design for Graphicways Issue Date 30.07. Submission Date 30. 09. IV Name & Date Mr. K.M. Ishraque Submission Format The submission is in the form of an individual written report. This should be written in a concise, formal business style using single spacing and font size 12. You are required to make use of headings, paragraphs and subsections as appropriate, and all work must be supported with research and referenced using the Harvard referencing system. Please also provide a bibliography using the Harvard referencing system.

Submission Format Part 1 (P1, P2, P3,P4) Discuss various networking principles and options that can be used to build such a system, the discussion should include but not limited to ● The advantages and disadvantages of various solutions to achieve the goal. ● How each solution will affect the topology , bandwidth, protocols, availability, security, cost and communication ● The roles and function of each devices (eg router, server), technology (eg: cloud) and protocols involved in. (Report) Part 2 (P5,P7) Identify a suitable solution for Graphicways. The solution should be derived from the previous task. Explain how your proposed solution will fulfil the expectation in the most efficient way. The design part should cover the entire solution, Implement the solution in a virtual environment ( you may omit certain parts (eg cloud solution) when implementing in the virtual environment) (Report and Presentation) Part 3 (P6, P8) Test the backup solution and internet filtering, and document the following ● Authentication, Authorisation settings ● Internet filtering and bandwidth control ● Efficient backup strategy. (Report with Screenshot and Presentation) Part 4 (P7) Explain how you will maintain the network in a healthy state, the report should include ● Device/Network Monitoring ● Support Plan ● Update/Upgrade plan (Report)
