The firm prides itself on using only the finest ingredients and preparation methods. The owner hired you as an IT consultant to help her plan the system architecture for a new WLAN that will connect employee computers to the wired network. What wireless standards could be implemented in the new system? What are the pros and cons of each standard? Choose a wireless standard to implement and explain your choice. Suppose that microwave ovens and cordless telephones are used extensively in some parts of the facility. Would that affect your IEEE 802.11 amendment choice? What standards would not be a good choice in this type of environment? Suppose that the new WLAN will also provide roaming services for employees who must use portable computers and tablets in many warehouse locations. Which wireless topology would be the best choice? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardi)Network monitoring is needed for any sized network. Proactively monitoring the network infrastructure can assist network administrators with their day-to-day duties. The wide variety of networking tools available vary in cost, depending on the features, number of network locations and number of nodes supported. You will conduct research on available network monitoring software. You will gather information on software products and features of those products. You will investigate one product in greater detail and list some of the key features available. ii)How can various versions of SNMP and non-SNMP devices be managed by an SNMP Management system?
