ITKnow Ltd. has just opened up with the aim of offering IT related courses to its students,
competing with UTM. It aims to provide student labs, provide computers for its staff and also
host its own website. The organisation has subscribed to a 10 Mbps global IP service and was
granted a block of public IP address 202.123.21.120/29 from its ISP.
It terms of infrastructure, the institute shall require the following:
A server to host the institutes website and also a learning management system (LMS) on
which students can access course materials on campus and from home. Each of these
should be reachable on www.itknow.com and lms.itknow.com respectively. All staff should
have a personal email address under the institute domain @itknow.com.
The institute wants to set up five computer labs, each containing 20 PCs on static IP
addressing, each having restricted internet connectivity. Each computer lab is expected to be
on a separate VLAN.
Additionally, each classroom should have 1 PC on DHCP and shall be used by the lecturers.
These PCs require unrestricted internet connectivity.
2 PCs will be given to the system administrator in the Server Room for network and system
management purposes only. Also 3 PCs will be made available for administration and
another 3 for teaching assistants (TAs). Note: These 6 PCs should be on static IP addresses
and should have internal network access (website and LMS) only.
Finally, a wireless access solution should be made available to students over the campus
which can allow students internal access to the LMS and web server but with restricted
access to the internet. Staff shall have unrestricted access to the Internet. As a single Access
Point is unlikely to provide enough coverage and connectivity for all users, you will have to
decide how many APs you shall require. Additionally, there should be two wireless networks
within the campus : ITknow_public for guests and students and ITknow_private for staff.
Guests and students will authenticate via a WPA2-PSK password and staff will authenticate
via WPA2-802.1X using a username and password on a RADIUS server.
