Description

Instructions

In this scenario, you have been hired as networking consultant by a nonprofit organization that needs to relocate their main office to a new building across town. The new location will consist of 40 users. The organization has a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy, so workers will need both a wired network for their desktop computers and a wireless network for their mobile devices.

The network will also consist of one IBM iView Document Center and two HP 4230 LaserJet printers, which need to be networked and accessible using both the wired and the wireless network.

Before the physical work can begin, you will need to make several recommendations to the client. Your recommendations should include the elements listed below. ·

  • Beneficiaries: Write a description of who will derive direct benefit from the project and how they will benefit. ·
  • Deliverables: Write a description of the computer network hardware necessary to set up the computer network and the necessary software and protocols. Your deliverables will contain the following features:
    • type of NIC (wired or wireless),
    • routers or wireless access points or both,
    • cables and connectors to implement a physical network,
    • any other needed network hardware,
    • physical and logical network topologies,
    • Internet Protocol (IP) version (IPv4 or IPv6) and the reason it was selected,
    • IP address pool for the network,
    • Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), and
    • any other network software component.

Ensure your case study is at least three pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages. Your paper should be double-spaced, use 12-point Times New Roman font, and contain one-inch margins. Section headings are encouraged to help organize your paper. Your paper must be written using APA format.

Cite a minimum of three sources, two of which should be peer-reviewed, academic, or scholarly to support your responses. At least one source should come from the CSU Online Library. All sources used, including the e-textbooks, must be cited.

Beneficiaries
In regard to the plan by your organization to relocate your main office to a new building
across town, and as a networking consultant, I would like to make the following
recommendations. First of all, bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy is one of the latest policies
being adopted by a number of organizations where employees are allowed to bring their personal
gadgets and devices to their workplaces (Hamza & Noordin, 2013). In particular, your BYOD
policy will be in tune with the intended project of installing both wired and wireless network.
Your organization would be the direct beneficiary of the intended project that will be in line with
your BYOD policy in that; the policy will save the organization`s money which could have been
used to buy the organization`s equipment. The funds would be used by the organization to equip
the networking services. The project will also boost employees' productivity which will also be
the direct benefit of the organization. This is because the employees will be comfortable and
familiar with their devices, making the working environment enjoyable and pleasant to work
under. Since they are working on their devices, the employees will continually update them, and
working on updated technology will benefit the organization since their services will always be
latest.
Deliverables: Computer network hardware

Type of NIC
Network interface card is a network device either a card or a circuit board which is

installed inside the computer to enable it to connect to a network. Given that your organization is
relatively large, with 40 users, and requiring both wired and wireless network, the following
network interface cards will be used:
