N E T W O R K I N G | 2 0 2 1 P a g e | iii Purpose of this Assignment Computer networks have become the essence of our daily lives. Computer networks are the driving force behind the evolution of computer systems allowing users to access data, hardware and services regardless of their location. The major purpose of this assignment is to provide the students an opportunity to exhibit their knowledge in the field of computer networking, how the network operates, protocols, standards, security considerations and the prototypes associated with a range of networking technologies. The assignment will help the students to check their knowledge for configuring and installation of networking system exploring the range of technologies and troubleshooting the network. The students will be able to demonstrate their skills and understandings over the operation of IP data networks, router, switching technologies, IP routing technologies, IP services and troubleshooting through the completion of this assignment. Besides technical stuffs, the students will be demonstrating their skills such as communication literacy, critical thinking, analysis, reasoning and interpretation, which are crucial for gaining employment and developing academic competence. The completion of this assignment will illustrate that the student has been able to:
- Examine networking principles and their protocols.
- Examine networking devices and operations.
- Design efficient networked systems.
- Implement and diagnose networked system. There are two parts based on the scenario. You are required to contextualize the task as per the given scenario wherever possible. Each student has to submit their assignment as guided in the assignment brief. The students are guided what sort of information is to be produced to meet the targeted criteria. All the tasks need to be done individually and the student has to produce an individual assignment. Scenario NIC Asia Bank is a reputed and well managed bank in Nepal. NIC Asia Bank was founded in
- Now it is running up with a paid-up capital of over 160.46 million rupees.

Hiring, firing, capacity development of working personnel, etc. are some of the main responsibilities of the organization. It comprises of a HR Officer allowing with an assistant officer for its operation. Management Department (27 Computers) : This department is solely responsible for operational management of the branch office. It comprises of a Branch Manager and other two personnel for its operation. Account Department (6 Computers) : This department is responsible for handling all the accounts of NIC Asia Bank. Regular internal audit and monitoring of account is done by this department. It comprises of Account Head and other two account staffs for its operation. You have been hired as and IT officer in the IT Department and your major roles and responsibilities are to Plan, manage, design, implement and optimize the network system for the organization considering IP addressing, Server System, various other services, Network devices, Security devices etc. In order to prepare a report, your report will demonstrate that you understand the principles of network infrastructure management and able to design, implement and test complex network systems suitable to large organization like NIC Asia Bank.
N E T W O R K I N G | 2 0 2 1 P a g e | vi Assignment Task – Part 2 After your submission to the manager, you have met expectations as to your theoretical knowledge and have been given the go ahead to proceed with designing and installing the new network. Your further tasks are: i. Develop a network design to meet the requirements of the company from the specification given. ii. Test and evaluate the design against the requirements specification, collect user feedback and perform an analysis on that with the aim of improving the efficiency of your designed network. iii. Implement the network as per your design. iv. Install and configure the appropriate network services and applications on your network. v. Produce and implement a test plan for the network clearly showing outcomes against your expected results. vi. Then recommend possible enhancements to your network. vii. Design a long-term maintenance schedule to support the running of your network. Finally provide a critical reflection of the whole design and implementation process to evaluate what you have done and justify the conclusions you draw from that to the operations manager. Submission Format: The submission is in the form of an individual evidence portfolio. The portfolio should contain ● Network system design plans and blueprints with clear justifications for your choices. ● A fully completed test plan including an evaluation of how the network meets the requirements specification, collect user feedback on your design and show how you analyse it with the aim of improving the efficiency of the network when you install it. ● Evidence of having implemented the network to your final design. ● Documented evidence of installing and configuring network services and applications onto your network ● A proposed and justified maintenance schedule for using the network long term. ● A critical reflection evaluating and justifying your work on the network.

N E T W O R K I N G | 2 0 2 1 P a g e | xix ABSTRACT In this part, we will be discussing about the basic concept of networking. These concepts of networking include networking and its types, network topology with its types, different network standards with its layer’s description and many more. Using this information, network knowledge of an individual can be tested or any candidate who are interested in networking field can be educated from the basics so that they will be able to contribute in their field with their knowledge. Also, information regarding different hardware and software used in a network is included in this part. The relation between them is also shown so that there is no confusion regarding the functioning of those hardware and software parallelly. Network protocol, their functionality and their effectiveness are also shown in the part. Finally, a server, some protocols and a topology has been selected at the end of the part so that an effective network system can be made for the NIC ASIA BANK. Its implementation and some of the practical as well as their information is included in part 2 of the assignment.
