The Network

Situation in which the Project Exists:   This project is for a residential data communication network.   The proposed network is designed to connect 2 workstations and 1 printer.   It will provide internet access as well as multiple email addresses.   The client has approved an initial investment of $5,000 to implement the networking project.   The two workstations will be two HP Pavilion Laptops with AMD Turion II Dual Core Mobile processor, each for $529.99.   The printer will be a PIXMA Wireless

interconnected through the internet nowadays. The internet is the connection of assorted computer networks through a series of service providers and businesses. In order to create these networks, there needs to be devices known as routers, switches and firewalls. These devices have some very well-known vendors, such as, Cisco and Juniper. Juniper uses an operating system called Junos. Junos OS is a great network operating system because of its modularity and it’s unique and hierarchical configuration style

WIRELESS NETWORKS Wireless networks have become a major part in the operation of businesses and in people’s lives. Wireless networks can provide fast speed internet connections without having to use wired connections. Businesses are doing much better with wireless networks because they don’t have to pay the costs of installing wired networks and people can work easier because they do not have wires running all over the place. Now with wireless networks in place, businesses are able to connect

Professor Lee Overview Network Virtualization Network virtualization is a technology, which enables combining computer network resources into a single platform appearing as a single network. In this form of virtualization, all hardware and software in the virtual network appear as a single collection of resource. The goal of network virtualization is to provide systems and users with efficient, controlled, and secure sharing of the networking resources. The product of network virtualization is the

I. Physical Network Design A. Network Topology Business Needs UMUC management is in need of a reliable network that will be able to provide enough security of their data and any intellectual property within the servers. Data loss or manipulation may be as a result of data being intercepted during its transfer between computers. When a good network is deployed, they believe that faster and secure data traffic will be maintained. Proposed Topology Star topology will be used to implement this structure

Without the modern router, the internet as we know it today would not be possible. Routers interconnect smaller network segments known as LANs (Local Area Networks) by filtering and passing small packets of data to other routers outside of the LAN across a series of physical media. This topology, where multiple LANs are physically connected, is referred to as a WAN or Wide Area Network. This basic operation of packet forwarding forms the foundation of the internet. Originally the Internet began

Network Consultation Scheme Student’s Name University Affiliation Network Consultation Scheme Suitable Network Design Many of the companies face hardship when it comes to the careful selection of a network design. However, the company must select an efficient kind of network type. The design must conform to the merchandize involved in the transaction even if they are produced by the different companies. It is because, merchandises that happen to be in the same

Types of networks: LAN- LAN means Local Area Network. It is a computer network that distances quite a small area. It is mostly restricted to a room or a building etc. WLAN- WLAN means Wireless Local Area Network. It is a wireless version of a LAN. It allows a mobile user to connect to a local area network through a wireless connection. WAN- WAN means Wide Area Network. They are mostly connected through public networks. For example: Telephone systems. It can also be connected through satellites

Duel-Homed Gateway Host is placed between the internal network and the internet/ external network. A duel-homed host can router packets between the two networks that are connected, but usually this function is disabled making it so neither of the two networks can not communicate with each other, but can communicate with the duel-homed host. However, the duel-homed host can see network traffic that goes across both internal and external network. A dual-homed host can provide services only by proxying

Wireless Local Area Networks      A wireless local area network (LAN) is a flexible data communications system implemented as an extension to, or as an alternative for, a wired LAN. It uses radio frequency (RF) technology, to transmit and receive data over the air, minimizing the need for wired connections. A wireless LAN system can combine data connectivity with user mobility.      The data to be transmitted is modulated onto the radio waves,
