Question:
Thrift Towne's owners are also concerned about security, because the network will share some confidential information and documents (files) and the workstations will be connected to the internet. Thrift Towne uses mostly volunteers to run its stores, and the volunteers are not technical experts, so they are hoping for a solution that doesn't require any complex maintenance. In addition, Thrift Towne doesn't have much money to spend on this project. In short, the owners have asked for a simple, inexpensive solution.
1. Giving reasons, explain the type of network that you would recommend for Thrift Towne. Recommend a suitable topology for this network and explain the reasons for your choice.
2. What kind of additional equipment would you recommend Thrift Towne to purchase to make the solution effective? Explain why they would need that additional equipment?
3. Evaluate the different types of networking cables that could possibly be used in this solution, paying special attention the features, advantages and disadvantages of each. Which one of them would you recommend and why?
4. Outline the role(s) that you would assign to each of the four workstations?
5. With the aid of a clearly annotated diagram, provide a typical design of how the complete solution would be structured.
