Document Content and Description Below

Full Sail University TECHNOLOGY TECHNOLOGY CTI2006 In this activity you will look at two separate scenarios and design a network that best suits the requirements for each scenario. You will ... have to do research on switches, routers, and other network infrastructure devices. As you design each network, ensure that you meet their requirements, as well as, use their budget wisely. Write a brief explanation on why you chose the selected network equipment over other options available. Instructions: Read over each scenario. Looking at the requirements for each sceernario, do some research and decide what would be best for each network(devices/services). Your network design can be a list of devices or a logical/physical topology of your design, with a summary explaining why you chose each device/service. Add links to the devices you've chosen, include the price of each device as well as a total budget. There is no one way of designing any network. Your reasoning for choosing a device is just as important as the device itself. Be creative with your design! Scenario A: young married couple, the husband is an accountant, and the wife is a graphic designer. They are both now being asked to work from home. Their work needs will be mainly accessing resources from their offices but nothing too large in file size. They have a 2-story townhome with 1600 square feet space. There is a 2nd floor master bedroom with a streaming device, a 1st floor office space with a streaming device and living room with a 3rd streaming device. The wife works from the master bedroom while the husband works mainly in the office space. Their ISP is a cable provider, and they have a 200 Mbps download and a 50 Mbps upload service account. The cable modem is in the office space and they currently pay $5 a month to have an integrated wireless access point (WAP) but no ethernet capability. The office space will need to have a LaserJet printer connected to the network via ethernet Cat-5E cable. They want to stop paying the monthly $5 and have their own WAP. The WAP needs to have an integrated switch that can provide them reliable work-from-home connectivity, with at least 4 ethernet ports for growth, and steady streaming capability for their personal viewing. Budget for the network infrastructure improvement is under $2500. Scenario B: these two gamers share an apartment that also has a cable internet service provider, but their account is 100 Mbps download and 25 Mbps upload. The cable modem is in the common living room and they currently pay $5 a month to have an integrated wireless access point (WAP) but it has no ethernet capability. Their apartment is 800 square feet and single floor. They each have their own bedroom where they game from. One gamer also streams all their content online as they play. One roommate has a PS5 and the other an XBOX X game console in their respective rooms. In addition, each of them have a gaming desktop. They want to upgrade their network interface cards (NICs) to be some of the best for gaming. They also want to update their WAP to allow them to hard wire their game consoles and desktops. They want to make sure their live streams also run smoothly so stable Wi-Fi is a key constraint. Their budget is only about $1000. [Show More]
