Read the following scenario and then answer the questions that follow: You have been recently promoted to an Enterprise Administrator in your organisation. Your organisation is an IT tertiary institution offering several diplomas and degree programmes. Based on the overall organisation’s improvement plan, you have been appointed as Technology Leader who will foster the development of the network system design project. You have also signed a formal agreement that you will execute the project following cost effective best practices and network standards. Each semester, the IT Support personnel receive a file containing information about new students. These are Programming Students and Networking Students. The students are encouraged to use network-wide resources only for academic purposes. This includes the ability to complete tasks; share files; save files and print documents as required in their respective modules; conduct research and retrieve module materials, as well as access computers when writing assessments. At the end of each semester, students are required to write their practical examinations in one of the computer/lab rooms. The nature of the examinations requires the students to retrieve readonly examination files from the examination folder, work with these files, and save the modified files in a dedicated examination account home folder. The following are noted about the institution: • The tertiary institution consists of the Head Office in Cape Town and one campus each in Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town. • Each campus consists of: o Four lecturing halls; o A library; o Four computer/electronic device facilities; o IT Support office. • All client computers run Windows 7 or latest operating system, Microsoft Office 2013 suite, Microsoft Project and Microsoft Visio 2013. • The network is centrally managed at the Head Office and all campuses are linked to the Head Office. • Each campus is Wi-Fi enabled providing wireless connection to staff and students. Q.4.2 Draw a detail diagram showing the design and implementation of Q.4.1 below (just for reference). Q.4.1 Design an implementable routing and bridging solution for the network. Your solution must address the following design and operation aspect of all routers. Q.4.1.1 Functionality of the network layer. Q.4.1.2 Design and implementation of data plane. Q.4.1.3 Design and implementation of control plane. Q.4.1.4 Interconnection of networks using bridging systems.
